Me Thinks that Triple Valve springs are a bit overkill, A double will do, hell even a good comp single will do

will i have to worry about the valves hitting the pistons? or is that not going to be a very big factor in this build and also where can i look to get an idea on how much power i will be making before and after i do all this stuff. forgot to add im wanting to get a custom PCM tune when i get this done (thinking of Wait4Me)

You sure that cam is for an LS1?? Those are some pretty weak lift numbers anyway! Triple springs, good lord! Comp single 918's will do fine. You dont have to worry about piston-to-valve clearance at all. Not with those lift numbers. Honestly, do yourself a favor. Skip the 1.8 rockers and get a bigger cam. More beneficial in the long run. Which primary size are you looking at with the Hookers?

 

PS, Your gonna need a TUNE!!
