Default who's using patriot gold springs withOUT comp R's

I just want to know 1st hand who is using these AWESOME Patriot Double Gold springs WITH STOCK OR STOCK EQUIVALENT LIFTERS.

I am worried about collapsing a lifter due to seat pressure of the patriot springs.

Several people here and sponsors have mixed emotions about this, so I am asking for those who ARE running this set-up's opinions.

PLEASE post how many miles you have on your set-up

You simply cannot beat the patriot spring kit's value!

I replied in your other thread, but I'll repeat here. I have almost 20k on my stock lifters and gold springs, much of that time was with cams in the 59x and greater lift range.. I even ran a .610 lift for about 5k miles. I haven't had any trouble. Also I have literally 15 to 20 cars I've done cams or H/C packages on around here locally and all of them are on stock lifters, never heard of a problem with any of those. Btw, I installed a 231/237 .598/.595 with the gold springs in a 1999 WS6 with 115,000 miles on it about 6 months ago and it is still running great.
