Hey all,

I've been a lurker here for a while, and 1st let me thank you all for some great info! I've got a 1997 Dodge Ram with the 5.9 Magnum. Also got a jeep SRT8, but these motors are a bit different.

couple weeks back my brother blew the motor in in the ram, we knew it was coming as it had a knock for a while now. So we pulled it out and tore it down. Whole back half of the motor was crispy! But luckily the block looks immaculate for a truck with 150K on it. Got a rebuild kit ordered, new .480 cam, new crank, all new rods & pistons. About to order an SCT tuner as well. My question is, i know with a new a cam that its best to get new pushrods (ordered) and valve springs. I found some valve springs but im not real familiar with which to get. Any one got some suggestions out there? Here are a couple i've been considering. Thanks in advance!
