From what I've found you can go to 1-9 rockers with the stock springs if you keep your shift points at 6k ,I've also used HS 1-9's with 6k shift points and no valve float in fact Ron Vogal currently the fastest rockered m-90 car is running 1-9's with stock springs,but since you have the springs already go ahead and change them but it would be prudent to change valve seals at the same time .Chico(pops)

I had issues running HS 1.9's with stock springs. Valve float like no other under certain conditions and it happened way before 6k rpm.

With that in mind I've always recommended upgrading valvesprings just to be safe. Better to do it once than to have to dig in there multiple times. Gets to be a huge pita when you have to pull rockers more than once.

well......im about half way done, the front six where not very difficult, i got the springs and rockers done there then put the valve cover back on, now im clearing a path for the rears and speaking of witch it is a pain in the rear so far, i had to quit because it started to get dark and rain a little bit, so i will continue in the morning, i dont see why i wont have it done then either, ive been taking pictures of progrees and i will post them when the project is complete.

Get some headers, or I'll sell you my PLog and rear pem asap when I get the TOGS on soon!
Did you install an aftermarket DownPipe? Have you done the ubend delete yet? Don't see those things listed in your sig mod list.

With the 3.4 on there, you need some serious exhaust work. I understand, we all have priorities. Just don't want you going to a 4th motor you know. BalckArrow just posted a nice d/p on another thread about Ubend.

How did you replace the springs without dropping the valves in the heads?

lol....i was very very carefull when lifting the spring, and if i saw that the valve moved down a little i would pull it back up and rub some oil around it, it seemed to work for me, i think its mainly because i took my time and was very carefull, it took me 8 hours to do.

I was going to ask you the same question. I hope it doesn't take me 8 hours though. Glad it is all working out for you. I am tackling that next week, with some 1.9 Pro Magnum rockers and also a TOG headers install.

the 8 hours was well worth it. i was going to get the 1.9 magnum, but i got the modded 1.9 instead, it was cheaper, and 1.9 is 1.9, so im still thrilled with the gains, it pulss alot harder when the rpms are high, if your going to get the 1.9s dont forget the 105 springs
