well i'm bout to buy some cams soon and was curious on what kind of compression ratio
the exospeed race ls cams need to gain as much power as possible and if it'll gain good power with stock compression ratio or should i juss get the ls909 from exospeed
it's almost the same price and i know both of them are regrind stock cams

i need some opinons

also are gsr valve springs and retainers useable with b18a head?

this is what i'm going to do

b18a block with p30 or pr3 pistons which ever i find cheaper
thinner headgasket
gsr valve springs and retainers
exospeed race ls cams
and i/h/e
should i get arp rod bolts?
what do you guys think of the set up, will i have any clearance problems with using the p30/pr3 pistons and what kinda power will i be looking at

as far as i know you cant use the gsr springs for pistons id go with p30 wich is around 10.8-11 compression

 

will i be able to run up to 8k rpm without damaging anything by using the gsr springs the springs currently have 120k miles on it or should i juss buy new ones?

 

u could just buy my crower 404s and call it a day

how much you want for them i might be interisted in them

 

check sig

 

im running p30 pistons in my ls block making about 11:1 compression i wouldnt worry too much about getting a thinner head gasket. If you want more compression than that you could try flat faced valves. crower also makes some pretty good cams, i havent got around to getting my cams yet but the exospeed ones have sparked my interest. good luck with the build!

 

do you have any clearance issues with the p30 pistons?
