87 warrior project

[1988nissan300zx]

ok i know i have been asking a lot of questions but i am just trying to get things figured out. If the hd springs are able to be used with bigger cams and s1hc is ment to be used with stock springs will the hd springs be to stiff for the s1hc.

 

[97warrior_rider]

No the hd springs can be used with all cams including s1hc

And we don't mind asking questions it's how u learn things about the bike were here to help so ask away

 

[1988nissan300zx]

well decided to hold off on finishing the valve job until i get some hd springs.

 

[1988nissan300zx]

got a call from the machine shop today and my jug is done getting bored so hopefully i can pick it in the next day or two. might be back together sooner than i think, just got to get the hd springs and find a cam.

 

[1988nissan300zx]

got my jug and piston back yesterday.

about to order the hd springs just wanted to make sure that this is the ones you guys were talking about. and does it matter the about the years because these say that they are for 88-04 and mine is an 87. thanks

The black diamond valve springs are the ones you really want the kibble whites shown in the eBay ad appear to be the standard kibbles

[1988nissan300zx]

got my valve spring kit and couple oil filters in the mail today.

parts pile starting to build up. lol getting close.

 

[97warrior_rider]

Holy crap ha ha that looks like the 450 parts pile in my truck bed

 

[1988nissan300zx]

haha. yeah i think your piles a little bigger though. hopefully i can actually put this stuff to use soon.

 

[97warrior_rider]

I'm sure it's going to come together nicely

 

[1988nissan300zx]

well got to talking to my brother and since he works at a machine shop i think i am going to do a little port work since i am right there.

 

[1988nissan300zx]

well not really any updates, going to be getting the port work done this weekend and still got some little odd and ins to do. my next big thing is to find a cam, wanting something like the hot cam stage 1 or the web .390, so if anyone has one or knows of one please let me know. thanks.

Forget the Hotcam. Get HD valve springs and a Web or Megacycle.

 

[1988nissan300zx]

yeah i got the springs already. i am really wanting the web .390, but out of the megacycle cams which one would you suggest. cause i found this but dont know much about it and the lobes look to have a little wear one them.

Well the thing with the Web cams is this; they require the rockers to be hard welded so the cam doesn't eat them. Also, after talking to several engine builders, Web "spray welds" their cams? I cannot confirm, but they can get air pockets in them, and once they wear into them, those pockets do damage. The Mega cams are usually all billet, I believe. If I were you, I'd get the Mega .415 (252x2 part number). You are already having the head ported, so it will work very well for you. Short of having your cam custom ground by an engine builder, and rockers HW, the Mega is the best drop in and run cam, IMO.
