What You Need To Know About Valvesprings - All About Valvesprings - How To Do It

For many years camshaft technology was limited not by any lack of knowledge on the part of lobe profilers but by valvespring technology that just wasn't up to stabilizing aggressive lobe designs.For many years camshaft technology was limited not by any lack of knowledge on the part of lobe profilers but by valvespring technology that just wasn't up to stabilizing aggressive lobe designs. But within the last 10 years, spring material and design improvements have evolved that-in conjunction with ever-lighter valvetrains-enable the potential of modern cam lobe profiles and high-flowing cylinder heads to be fully realized. Today, we have more spring choices than ever, but that also means it's easier to go down the wrong path or to very quickly get confused on all the intricacies of installing and setting up valvesprings. To answer the most basic but often misunderstood questions about valvesprings, HOT ROD consulted with a variety of experts, including Billy Godbold (Comp Cams), Joe Sherman (Joe Sherman Racing), Judson Massingill (School of Automotive Machinists/SAM), Ken Crocie (H-O Enterprises), Ken Duttweiler (Duttweiler Performance), and Steve Brulé (Westech Performance).
