Always use the spring specified by the cam grinder. Edelbrock specs either of these springs for use with that cam.

I could be wrong, but I believe those needle bearing rockers have to run on a hardened shaft. Here's the whole kit....

That Edelbrock 2105 is what my buddy used to call a "weak suck operation". Step up to a high-rise Edelbrock RPM or Weiand Stealth. You should pick up 30-40 horsepower over the low-rise model.

The Weiand Stealth #7282 for the FE motor may have been discontinued, but should be available used on ebay or craigslist.

After talking to Edelbrock, they OKed the cam and spring combo I am going to run and they told me to not run a bigger intake than what I have cause its "matched" to that cam and will work good with the carb also...I am planning to use ProComp's rocker arm/shaft combo with a new set of pushrods...I am using that intake and carb because I got both used for less than what my intake costs new...If I was buying new it might be different but I have only found 3 used aluminum FE intakes in the state of Florida and one of them I now have...And all 3 were the same...I went to the Turkey Run in Daytona last month and the only thing people had was CJ stuff and I'm not paying out the butt for a factory part...This is the updated list of stuff I have or am getting for the engine...
