Hi Zeroaxe - do i gather you are in France then, not USA as i first thought?

Valve springs - The company i work for sells dual valve springs, but not sure that you need them. If you have an Engle 110 then uprated single springs are necessary, but duals are not needed. BUT... an Engle 110 cam is not suitable for use with hydraulic cam followers! If you want to keep the hydraulic lifters then you need a hydraulic cam profile. So check your cam followers and cam. If it is an Engle 110 then use solid cam followers from a 1-7-2.0CJ engine (they will just slip in without any machine work) and use the the correct length pushrods for solid lifters (282mm long). On our own engines we will only use an Engle 110 cam with uprated pushrods, bolt up rocker shafts, and swivel feet adjusters.

I work for VW Heritage / Street style & Power in the UK. I won't post links here as this is not an advertising forum and i only post here out of my own personal interest, not a work interest, but you can easily find us online should you wish. There are loads of other places in the UK that sells these as well, so look in Volksworld magazine for adverts.

Regards

Moog
