If you went back to the stock spring pressure in stock an awful lot of cars would slow down a bunch. And a lot of camshafts would become short pool cues.

THAT would be a cost effective and smart move. No more Shubeck type lifters, no extream hi RPM's, "Ported" heads and intakes would become mostly obsolete, engines would last longer, building and maintaining a stocker would be less expensive, and less work. They dont HAVE to be stock pressures.....just an across the board maximum pressure would be fair for all combos. Todays stocker runs more spring pressure than my 1977-78 era Super Stocker and it would turn about 8000 RPM. No more square lobe cams.
