see newman cams theres last alot longer then piper and kent they come with solid lifters also see pumaracing for proper double valve springs the ones you get with the kits are shite they dont like high revs pumaracing ones can take up to 8000rpm with no valve float and you can use them on any profile

Ahh yeh thats them sorry i said pumaspeed

The thing is i dont want solid lifters as i know they are a pain to set up with shims etc...unless anyone knows different who has fitted them..

I see on the newman website you have to buy a clamping tool for £18..?? is this really needed..if it is im looking at £286 plus BEFORE i even buy the double valve springs lol
