Re: Comp 918 springs ok with a .591/.569 lift cam? I thought the max lift for the 918s was a 0.600" lift....
if so, your starting to get really close to the max (springs won't last as long).....
What duels were you looking at (Comp 987s or the REV duels)? I have the 987s and they require modification of the spring seat.

Re: Comp 918 springs ok with a .591/.569 lift cam? I was planning on going with the REV's which require no head work. Any more opinions guys, it's getting close to install time. I have some new 918's I ordered a while ago when I thought I was going with a .563 lift cam but now I don't know whether to sell them and get the REV's or what.

Re: Comp 918 springs ok with a .591/.569 lift cam? I know of a guy using them with a 230XE-R/226Xe with .591 on the intake side and he plans to use then for at least a good year and a half.
