Quote: Just curious...what cam lift are you running, what heads, and what installed height? Having and "extra" .210 is a huge number. Taking a typical .680 ish lift cam, a 1.950 I/H, that would leave about .020 to coil bind on a typical spring. Increase the I/H to 2.00" and assuming a 1.200 coil bind,that would leave .120 clearnce, STILL .090 away from your .210 . just wondering is all.You may have some weird spring with a very low coil bind number, but that just sounds like a ton.A bigger cam even makes the numbers worse.
Dont know the whole story, but sorry for sure to hear of your troubles. Good luck to you.
Cam was a pretty mild lobe (not fast) .434 lobe with 1.7 rocker and about .022 lash. Springs were Comp Triple (948-16) 1.645 OD installed at 2.100, coil bind at 1.130. Oh yeah...guess I made a mistake with my calculator, they were installed with about .250" to coil bind when you subtract the lash.
