Are portflow valvesprings ok for JUN 3??
are they??
What type of valvespring setup would I need to run??
Portflow intake inner and outer and Portflow exhaust inner and outer springs??
Or will it be ok if I just by portflow intake springs(inner and outer) and pass my stock b16 intake springs to the exhaust side???
I´m a bit confused, so If any of you can help me.. that would be great!

most reccomend the JUN springs, I'm running some older style Portflows... Appearantly you can't get them any more. E-F1 or Toda would be my next choice. You really need to be careful with high lift/duration cams, they can cause serious issues with the motor.
I would recommend running the JUN, some people say they bind, but i and all my friends have had NO issues with the springs binding.
Or you can go with the Toda valvesprings.

yellow ITR outters springs + Portflow inners all around would work great with JUN3. spring rate wise it will handle no problem. if you're really concerned you need to check the install height...
So i´ll be ok with portflow.. just have to buy the outer ITR springs...
this yellow ITR springs.. are they the exhaust springs from the ITR or the Intake ones??

that says a lot coming from a guy like max_cfm! what is the specs of the springs? max lift, seat pressure, and pressure @ various lifts?
ef-1 Single Springs Specs BVTEC
MAX_CFM runs ef-1 single outers.
Here are the specs at 1.350" installed height.
Seat Pressure ~ 65lbs
Open Pressure (12mm lift) ~ 165lbs.
Max Lift ~ 14.5mm
Coils ~ 5.5
Winding Orientation ~ Right Hand
Wire Diameter ~ 3.3mm.
It has smooth and linear pressure through it's motion. The other springs I've tested just don't feel right.

Can someone send me a sample JUN or Toda spring. I want to see how they compare to the ef-1 springs.

Here are comparison pics: Skunk2 Springs (Left), Stock B16 (Middle), ef-1 Speed Stable (Right)

I would never run the Skunks, the stockers sag, ef-1 are my first choice.
