That will make it a fun machine when it's done. I should have fit up HD valve springs when my head was last rebuilt, but I just couldn't afford it at the time. Now it will cost me more time & money to upgrade the springs.

Even if you don't get the cam right away, that's a rather easy job to do later. The valve springs no so much.
