Default Isky LS1 beehive springs

Anyone run these or have any experience with them? Im curious how they hold up and compare to other aftermarket springs. Ive always had an affinity for the old names so if they are good I might just switch over to them! Thanks!

what springs you have now?

I hear A LOT of good things about both the patriot dual gold springs and the AFR's.... i will say i've read on a few occasions of guys having issues with the beehives... but not too often....

Ive only really heard of people having problems with the comp 918 beehive springs. I have duals now, the PRC .650 lift set, and they work fine but I wanted to see what people had to say about these.

those are some good springs you have... plenty for your cam... unless they are too noisy for you, which really shouldn't be a reason to swap them anyways, i'd stick with em...
