Default Mti Stage 2e Ls1 Heads

am looking into doing a bigger cam. Did these heads come with the 921 springs or 918 dual springs? i have maybe 6k miles on the current ones and am going from a MTI Stealth II cam to LG g5x2 and was wondering if i really need to change the springs. I cant get a hold of MTI anymore to ask them . I know they came with dual springs. Thanks.

The 918 springs are Comp's single coil, beehive design. If you have dual springs, they should be fine for the G5X2 cam. It wouldn't be a bad idea to pull a spring and have it checked by a machine shop though.

I pm'ed Dave, he said the springs are the 918's that are on there currently, and that re recommends me to change them if i am going with the G5X2 cam.
