Default vlavesprings for .630 lift?

I have found some valvesprings from lingenfelter that handle .650 lift and the shop around me has a set of comp cams that is rated to .625 lift. the lingenfelter ones are a lot more money. So the question is can I get by on the comp cams valvsprins rated to .625 or should I fork over the money. if anyone knows anyplace else that would have some I would be interested as im not in a hurry. just want to do it right.

Give Patriot Performance a call------Sponsor------->
They have a set of dual springs tha are rated at .650 & the $ is incredible. Do a search for them there are a ton of people running them.

I'd get some PRC's or Patriot duals. Can't beat 'em IMO. Comp 921's would do the trick also but are quite a bit more money.

any of the associated golds will work just fine (PP, PRC, TEA, ect) and im sure are alot cheaper then the LPE set. the gold kits can be had for 300 or under and that includes everything needed.

What springs are you referring to? Based on the very limited information from this post I couldn't recommend anything but the spring that is rated to handle your cam.

Why not get something like PRC's or Comp 921's?

Edit: Man, when I started typing this there were zero replies. I enter this and three people beat me!
