ive searched and i got mixed results. nothing dealing with exactly what im setting up here. im putting my engine together and before i put the head on id like to order a setup of valve springs.

what im looking for here is answers from people who have actually done this, not people who are just gonna bash me for not throwing my $ in the garbage to please jdm freaks who troll around looking at peoples threads and giving them **** for not spending a few hundred extra bucks for no reason.

anyway, would it be a problem revving a b16 head to 8800-9k with supertech valve springs, 2001 ITR cams, and STOCK b16 retainers? all the threads ive found were using some type of aftermarket cams so this is why im posting this.

 

theres no point in reving that high. i highly doubt ITR cams make power that high. i would not rev higher than like 8400rpm.


i dont know about the b16 retainers question.

 

going on a 9.8:1 b16, boosted, i just added this to the all motor forum cause i wouldnt get any responses on the forced induction board.

from what ive been told the ITRs on boost will be good to that high of an rpm, which im hoping because im running a b16 tranny and will be trapping ~130mph on 24.5 tires when all is said and done so i need the rpms.

 

yes that set up will work just fine i have been reving my stock retainers to 9 for 2 years with no problems

 

same cams? just wondering for verification

 

Well I've been running Supertech springs with stock retainers for a couple of years now with no issues on Skunk2 Stg2 cams

 

what rpms are you seeing?
