Have you contacted Andrews to find out what spring that they recommend for the EV-27? cams do require a specific installed spring pressure and a specific open spring pressure. I would start there. I do know my Woods 6 cam which is more aggressive (Not just on the ramp up but on the ramp down as well, where all your noise will occur) then the EV-27 is very quiet and I'm using BeeHives...
I would definitely start with phone call to Andrews.........
I got my spring compressor in the mail today !! That's fast !! Looks pretty cool and simple. Ordered just now Sifton valve springs from my V-Twin catalog (mas-classics) . $42. Springs only,oem pressure. May have them before my four day weekend and in they go !! I got a feeling this engine is going to quiet right down... Dam Indy !!!
Springs are here today,so I dug right in,only to find out that the high lift springs,caps and keepers are so different that I can't install them. I do have all my old stuff EXCEPT for the keepers,Dam !!! Shame on me,I should have bought the kit that came with keepers and rings. So I'm gonna reuse my old oem rings ,they fit new springs perfect and I have a set of new keepers on the way,hopefully Friday or I'm screwed and bikeless for my four day weekend. I need a drink...here some pics... Taller spring is the high lift.

Quite the difference in spring height there. The retainers won't work on the new springs?
As for the 4 day weekend, weather is supposed to be like ****.....
