zippy, i thought you were a firm follower of the GT2-3 cam for boosted trucks? that is what i have my sights on, but now i'm confused?

I had searched prices on Comp springs, but now leaning towards LS6, not sure who has best price on those.
I haven't searched pricing on the pushrods yet. I'm not sure now if the pushrods that I listed are correct for the cams and springs that Zippy listed.
Zippy, Jim and Eric, looks like stock rockers, retainers and keepers are being recommended over and over...what about lifters?

Cheapest I found on the pushrods, if these will work that is:

Hey guys, so the stock retainers will be ok w/ the LS6 springs, using a 550-560 lift cam, above listed pushrods and stock rockers?
Also, will these changes require a double roller timing chain?

You're fine with stock retainers and rockers, and the LS6 springs are a good match and quieter than 918's. I would, however, get an extra set of retainers (I think they come in packs of 4 each) just in case one goes flying. It would suck to put a cam install on hold because you don't have a $.05 part on hand.
