Very good question. Been wondering the same myself. Since i run the aem ecu i'm not worried about the computer but would like to know the biggest cam those heads/valves can handle?

Wow. That sucks. I thought the stock springs would handle a bit more than that. I kind of want to go with a little bit more lift and duration than the 34-255-5.

Thanks for the info!
