haah i was waiting for someone to answer, thanx
can i use the cruiser springs?
how bout vales and valve retentianors? and lash watevers

im basically asking if i can use anything off a pt loser in the jy
and if it matters if they have been exposed to air/water(though being covered in oil does help alot)

you can use the whole head assembaly minus the valves if 2003 or up... roller rockers... another car to look at is the intrepid 2.7 for the head components... much stronger... the guys running the crane 26 and 28's are forced to use them or the expensive rodes lifters...

sorry if I confuesed you... but you will still have to use the upgraded springs for the crane cam...

they changed the head in 2003 to a square port like the srt's ports... and hte valves changed as well...

I wouldent mess with the one that's been exposed to air to long....
