Looking at a cam upgrade for my 5.9, at what point will the stock springs no longer cut it?
 
The were designed for, and adequate for a stock cam, but after thousands of miles and heat cycles, I dont even reuse them on stock rebuilds.
 

After the valves sink in the heads and lose seat pressure. Or the springs get hot from over heating the engine.
 
The biggest drawback of the magnum is the valvesprings.
The hughes kit was the best value I could find
