Need Help with Cams
I decided to build my head while everything was apart now. If I upgrade to GTM turbo cams do I need to do a five angle valve job, or can I just change cams, valves (oe size) and springs? The heads will be cleaned before everything goes back in.
I considered new valves or 5 angle cut - but after discussing it with Technosquare, determined it wasnt worth the time and expense.
If you were doing a complete rebuild, you might as well... but just for cams alone probably not worth it.
I'm not familiar with GTMs cam profile - if it's aggressive you should probably get upgraded springs - or if you intend to bump the rev limiter to take advantage of high rmp breathing, stiffer springs are a good idea. I had stronger rod bolts & oil pump installed too (since I have DE)
