i install some sk2 stg2 cams and i hear something tapping inside im head...i adjusted the valves and still same thing....so im probaly thinking that it's my valve springs or retainers...im using a 14mm lift valve spring from KMS,and plus KMS retainers too....if i use stock cams then i have no tapping noise..... anyone ever use KMS valve springs before??

 

probably your lma's. Big cams tend to make more noise than oem ones do.

 

small lobes and s2s2 are just that, small (lift) Shouldn't be much of a difference on low cam vs oem. (atleast i wouldnt think anyhow).

I dont know the difference in ramp on the oem vs. s2s2 on the primaries? Anyone?

 

when i ran the s2s2 in my car a while back i had portflow springs and retainers, my engine made that same ticking noise from the valve cover. we did a val;ve adj. but it still did it, i think it is just normal man. probably from the stiffer springs.
