Which springs?
I am buying a G5x3 cam and am wondering what valvetrain components I need to replace to run this cam? Which springs will fit on a stock head and work with this cam? Do the lifters and pushrods need to be replaced as well? Just trying to get multiple opinions. Thank-you for everyones help in advance.

Patroit Gold or PRC spring kits go for about $300.00 and are also excellent springs to use with the G5X3. The Golds are good to .650 lift the PRCs are good to .660 lift. All of the springs mentioned drop right into the stock spring pocket. You should also invest in a set of moly push rods. You can use your stock lifters.
