· Valve train upgrade is required. We strongly recommend the use of Skunk2 Pro Series valve springs (P/N 311-05-5410) and titanium retainers (P/N 308-05-0420).

I guess its up to you though.

Depending on the cam you will need to change the springs and retainers. The cam you selected does require you to do the srpings and retainres. Also you might wat to see about doing the valve guides while you have the head off.
