I'm sure he won't tell you the seat pounds I bet. He's the same way with his cams. I would just call TEA. I believe that's where Johnny gets his heads.

JL will not tell me anything, if I asked. I don't want to contact him. I was hoping someone would know.

Because it's a secret even though he doesn't assemble his heads.

I purchased the motor a year ago. But I didn't know JACK about motors back then. Now I am backtracking making sure everything will be fine when I turn up the BOOOST. I had to run around for 4 months trying to get cam specs, turned out I couldnt get the specs till they were out of the truck, because he wouldn't give them. I ended up going with VT stage III. They sound very good and perform even better. Help!

I don't see why he wouldn't tell you the seat pressure. Now the cams I can understand... I think he uses Patriot Heads. You could always give Mark @ LFP a call. He uses Patriot heads and his Stage II's have springs with 95#'s of seat pressure, 235#'s of open pressure, and up to .600 lift.

if you really want to find out then here you go...

find some one with the heads and springs. (preferred off the truck), then measure the installed height, take the spring off, find a buddy or shop with a spring checking tool, put the spring in there set the installed height, compress to open height and there you go BOTH seat and open pressure.


probably not the answer you wanted but it is a hard way to find out.

I would rather just replace them. Seems like thats all I have done since I bought the dang motor is replace stuff.

This is where the sayin comes in..
I wish I knew then what I know now.
