The way I read this, Comnoz is providing in the video figures that indicate what will happen if you just swap out standard set of springs/seat and retainer to his conical spring seat and retainer, same cam, no shimming of springs. Just install. Just like the real life situation of a guy who decides to install a non standard spring with no further modification. This is not a high rpm race motor.
A baseline, no further change. A useful apples for apples comparison. As I understand it, Comnoz is saying no more than: in this case spring pressure is reduced. He is further saying this is compensated by reduced spring/seat/retainer weight and the set up still maintains follower to cam contact.
I wouldn't argue with it personaly as I have no basis for such an argument, and personally I assume Comnoz has backed up this assertion with Spintron testing! I don't think it is just opinion.
As soon as we mention a high lift cam and spring shimming, we must be expecting to use different figures that will be suitable for the application! And in such an application we would expect to be more particular about the installation. We would need installaion guidance.
Apples and Oranges!
Is it a suitable spring for a PW3? Consider that AN and Norman White/Mick Hemmings advise that a standard spring set up to be a suitable set up for a PW3. This might be a high performance road motor, or a race motor not intended to run over 7000rpm, say a 920 or 1007. So it seems to me likely that this spring set up would be OK for a PW3 as well as a standard cam. My assumption, assuming mainly a road motor or race motor constrained to 7000rpm
It might be interesting to see the spring pressure with a high lift setting, but assuming it does not become coil bound, but why would we expect a higher pressure than a standard spring seat and retainer set up?
Simple logic (not always a good guide!) would suggest a reduced pressure at this increased compression compared to standard springs.
But, I might also expect to be advised to adopt a higher install pressure for my particular application above 7000rpm in an attempt to further maintain follower to cam contact at these higher rpm!
