can u keep your valve train stock with crower 404 cams as long as you stick to the stock rev limiter. i know you would be loosing a little bit of horsepower from not beingable to reach the limit but is it possible? thanks

no. but u could try some 402's and 403's although the 403's are kinda pushin it. but u dont wanna use the 404's on stock valvetrain

 

could you use si or gsr valvesprings or retainers in the ls head?

 

No.

 

you absolutely need the valve train to handle those cams.

 

stop trying to cheap out

either do it right or risk a fucked engine. the choice is yours.

i guess the way i see it is if you want the HP and such from the crower 404's you'd at least be wise enough to upgrade the necessary parts to get the full amount out of the engine and if not then why waste time and a money and a good set of cams.

 

Can I use aftermarket springs with the stock retainers?
