Howdy,

I'm building a twin turbo 4.1L and the time has come to start thinking about a cam. The car will probably see about 50-70% streettime so I want to run about a 2200-2400 converter on the TH400 to start with, we'll see later when I step upto a TH200-4R, by then I might want more cam anyway. I will be running a pair of turbos off of Ford manual trans 2.3L OHC I4's from the early 80's (basically the same thing as stock GN peices) at 26-30 psi with twin front mount intercoolers, alky injection and probably 60# injectors since I don't really want to mod my ECM. The heads will be home ported and I will be running Comp Cams LS6 replacement beehives with Ti retainers. I can't afford a roller at this time so I'll have to stick to hydrallic flat tappet. What cam should I run if I'm wanting this thing to be able to push roll bar territory?

Thanks,
 
Howdy,

Doing further research on the valve springs, what would be considered excessive seat load 130lbs too much? Is 105lbs even too much?

Thanks,
