Glad they're working for you. Did you properly degree the cams with adjustable cam gears though since they're known to be off?

To each their own. I've personally never see anything good about their Evo cams (DSM ones seem ok) and I've seen a few pics of broken BC valve springs. I've also seen people float valves with the BC springs when the stock springs weren't. Every car and setup is different though so take everything with that in mind.

The bc valve springs measured perfect uniformity on the sets we've tested (spring pressure). If the springs are breaking it's not from the spring, it's something else causing it. For example, I have some broken cosworth dual springs with broken inner springs here right now. It's not cause the springs suck either.... It's from the cam that broke which bent valves an broke the springs.

I have seen stock sprigs break with no explaination though. They are definately softer then the bc springs too, so again, you should never see valves floating with bc spings before the stock springs float.

however you can say the same thing about 90% of the other brands, ive had kelford cams brake on me which caused me to replace my motor, and others have had problems with cosworth, gsc, and im sure even more than that. then again it may not be part failure, it could be an install error, or someone over reved and fd something. just because they said they where at 7k rpm, dosnt mean thats what really happined. cars brake, we cry about it for a min, fix it and do it all over again
