I have Anthony(aka Razor) doing the work on her....doesn't need bigger springs....the 117 was built around the .600 cam but EPA made them use a smaller cam to meet emissions,so the springs are strong enough already.

Well not tryin to dispute but with the .546 cam they also only installed a single wound .585 spring in 08. I have a 08 ridgeback as well. Pull the covers and installed S&S roller tip rocker arms, Quicke pushrods and a .590 Woods Cam.

Like I said just check to see what ya got cause they did reduce the springs.

Let us know how it turns out. I wanted more cam but didn't do to the springs I have in mine.

Well all I can say about the .600 is WOW!!!!! Holy Sheet this thing moves now. The power is instant in any gear,everything is smoother,and the sound is crisper. I cant believe I've waited this long to change cams.
