Valve Springs
For anyone who has installed a Crane Fast Road cam, did you go with heavier springs? I'm considering putting one in an XPEG, which I believe already has slightly heavier springs than XPAG. The question is really whether or not the stock XPEG springs are heavy enough for the cam. This is in a TC that is driven hard at times, but not raced.
Re: Valve Springs
Starting on page 36 of the MFK Wood paper in the Supertuning section he talks about both 1.25 and 1.5 engines. For the XPEG he mentions a few different cams, but it looks like he starts suggesting stiffer springs right at 10:1 C.R.

Hi Steve
on My 0433 MG TC
from Peter EDNEY,
I have a Fast Road Cam 030
and Strong Springs set 050
BUT if remember well under the Rocker Pedestal I must put 4 Shim set MOSS 433-128
the alternative was the short PUSH ROD 433-335
