Isky 400jr valve spring recommendations

Anybody know the hot tip on spring setup for a street motor running this cam?

 

I have heard that Zephyr springs are just fine, and I have also heard others recommend the *double springs*.........and you also need to shim for precise adjustment......

But I'd go to the Red's Headers site and see the recommendations there..... http://www.reds-headers.com/html/flathead_eng.html

Also, check out Isky's recommendations: http://www.iskycams.com/pdfcatalog/nav_2005.html#camseries

 

I have a drag race stroker 8BA with a 400 jr. I have single isky springs.I also have aluminum retainers and hollow lifters. never any float problems. The doubles aren't needed and are a pain in the ass. Not just my opinion, I had the doubles and Flatdog(HAMB flathead guru) told me I didn't need them so I replaced them with the singles and works great.

Thanks everybody, the HAMB make doing this shit so much easier sometimes, again thanks all for the input..........................

 

Let me ask the obvious question. What does Isky recommend for this cam?

 

get a package of .060 shims also. depending on how deep the valve seats are cut you might need one to get the 2 inch installed height as recommmended
