VG30ET head question

this has prrobably been covered but i cant seem to find it so here goes, i was thinking about using the schiender valve springs,and JWT camshafts in my VG30ET but the cams decription on every site i find says that they MUST be used with JWT valve springs. i dont want the jwt valve springs because its only the outer valve springs. so im curious if anyone knows if i can use the JWT cams with the scheinder valve springs, or if you have a better setup tell me where to get it. thanks alot.

Lightbulb Here's a novel idea...

Get the entire package from Schnieder. They can/will grind cams to whatever lift and duration specs you need. Why mix so many engine part vendors?

Thumbs up Help for the rookie...

Assuming we're talking turbos, this grind will work nicely. The idle is a little ragged, but sounds nice. I can't say for sure about any performance gains because I didn't add one piece at a time with dyno runs to verify differences.

I also use the Schneider SS valves, and, their springs. Won't float a valve, per their claim, up to 10,000 rpm. I can't verify that either.

ok i saved the pic for my reference and i might end up using it. so you went with that grind+schneider valve springs+SS schneider valves right? just checking to make sure. if this setup works as good as yo say i just may end up going this direction. can you also tell me where you went on the net to order this setup. i realize the cams that are in the car now have to be sent out to be reground but i would like to see the site for myself where you got yours. thanks.

Cool Last time I hold your hand today...

Dude... You buy Schneider stuff from SCHNEIDER.

Call 'em... Talk to 'em... They're waiting to serve you (and take your $$$$$...)

Later...
