I decide to play with and build up a SOHC head. Why? Its the challenge I suppose: lack of domestic cam choice, springs and retainers, & head flow. The pictures above are 4G69 valve springs which are a different design to allow higher lift without binding. Seat pressure are the same as the 4G64/6G7x springs. The retainer is an aluminum magnesium alloy from Ferrea, which is much lighter than the stock retainernand the OE valve lockers do fit without modifications.
Waiting on a few things to come through such as the cylinder head w/cam so I can send the cam out to be reground from a very well known cam company. Stay tuned for updates.
