LT4 Springs

Hey guys i have a 383that i just picked up and it was supposed to have a cc306 cam with the correct springs and when i started going through the paper work i found out that it had a LT4 Hot Cam kit in it. So now im redoing the motor and going to put the 306cam in it just wondering if i need to change the springs im running a 1.6rocker


Thanks Bill

Re: LT4 Springs

i know that cmotorsports.com sells the EX612 springs that are good to .600" lift. these come with retainers and locks for ~$110 and require no machining to fit.
