Yea so im wondering if I should use Darkglow(spirit) or Lightweave(int) enchant? Right now i have 3000 spirit + Heart of Unliving (880 spirit) and geared for Haste. I run 10 mans only and was thinking which cloak enchant was better for me

Lightweave. It's mana regen, healing throughput increase, and great to use with a shadowfiend to re-gain mana.
Almost everyone will say PT/LW, since transient int is a verrrry strong stat. The extra throughput you get from it usually outweighs the MP5 gain from HS/DG.
I did a lot of math on this when 4.2 hit, and it turned out PT/LW were still vastly superior. Things to keep in mind, though:
(1) the value of spirit goes up with ilvl, while the value of int goes down. Take a hard look at the mp5-regen formula to convince yourself this is true.
(2) the value of spirit also scales linearly with the length of the encounter.
I'm going to make a very bold prediction based on the sims I've run. HS/DG might be the way to go by the time you get to HC Madness. As always, time will tell.
Projecting my stat weights at current ilvl for a 12-minute encounter, I show Int at 6.91, and spi at 5.98. Spi's value will go up as I put on more gear, int's value will fall. DG/HS average spi is higher than PT/LW average int.
A lot of people think I can't really apply simc to healing, though.
That seems like way too much spirit to me...I have 2900 spirit and using foul gift + heroic jaws as my trinkets. I use PT and LW enchants. I'm not having mana problems at all so far. Spine of Deathwing was the only fight I even had to be careful with my mana on, and that problem went away once we learned the fight. (2 healing 10 man dragonsoul, btw)
As long as Intellect will have an impact on our mana pool/mana generation, it will be the best stat. So: Lightweave.
