dual springs pros/cons. tell me which ones yall perfer i am on the market for some dual springs and cant make up my mind. they need to fit in the stock seats without machining the heads. i can only find 5 that will work.
1. comp cam 921s (expensive but probably the best)
2. crane LS1 dual springs (cheaper but not sure on quality)
3. rev dual springs (havent heard anything on them)
4. patriot dual gold springs (too new and not sure yet)
let me know what yall think i should use. i need to buy some soon. i just got my new cam in and am not taking a chance on the 918s with the new motor. please help i cant make up my mind.

I have the TSP 231/237 cam on the way and am going with the cranes, good to .650. I dont forsee any problems, if any one else wants to chime in and share some expiriences good or bad I would appreciate it.

I'm running Isky 295D's, and they seem to be working fairly well. They work without machining but are not a true dual.
I just found this thread too:

If you have the money, go with the Comp 921s. If not, the Crane duals would be my next choice. I have used both on quite a few customer's car without any problems.

The Comp 977s or 987s will not fit in the stock spring pocket. I personally would run the Comp 921 or Crane duals before the 977/987s anyways.

These are on a set of heads Jay at Absolute did for me over a year ago. I know he's recently this year had some problems with float on the 987's, but he even told me himself that some from the older batches seem to be holding up fine. I just thought this was unusual is all....
