Default what cam with ur tfs 215s

I have been told that the trick flow dual valvesprings are good over .600 lift. I talked to a local shop and they use their 238/242 .605/.610 on the springs all the time and have no problem... I have seen these springs advertised at .600 lift and .650 lift... Does anyone run the trick flow 215s with a large cam like this and have you had any problems? Also what kind of power did you make?

i was just wondering if they would hold up.. i know id they do hold up they would wear out pretty quick... so i would replace them later with something better... Just wondering if anyone has ever done this.

oh and does anyone want my tfs springs with titanium retainers... they are rated at .600 and have seen less than 12000 miles with a 525 lift cam. So give me an offer.

the TFS springs are great springs...the 921s are no better...you can pick up a set of replacement springs from TFS for under 150 dollars being the seats and retainers will still work...ive ran mine with over 620 lift and lsl lobes and 605 lift with xer lobes
