What type of springs do you recomend ? Spring Load, brand etc?

This is completely dependant on what camshaft you buy. Typically the manufacturer of the camshaft will tell you what springs to run.

It also depends on how much lift he's going to run, and what rpms he's going to spin it

Correct which is dependant on what camshaft he buys. 😉

The lift isn't entirely dependent on the cam. But you win :wink:
 
Then i will bring the cam specs to the lokal parts dealer and provide him the info and what type of camshaft it is, and hope they will fix me the right stuff.
 
Whichever Company makes the camshaft will usually recommend what springs to use. Of course they recommend their own springs, but you'll be able to get the specs and source similar springs from any manufacturer.
 
Engine coated with primer, and painted Gold.. Next step is to mount all external eqipment, witch is all painted and shiny 🙂

What colour are you meaning 😳 ? The blue Rocker Covers?
In the last pic, the engines is painted with a two component primer. Wery strong and keeps rust away.
I was first thinking of Olds green, but hard to get the right colour, so Gold it is 🙂 No big fan of the blue 🙁
It will be crome rocker covers, silver pulleys, alternator/braket. satin Black Power Steering Pump/Bracket/Pulley.
Steel braced fuel lines.. etc..
 
Engine allmost ready. I think looks cool 😀 Kind of bling bling :mrgreen:
