Hey guys, I wanted to bounce this tech question off you as I'm piecing together my procharged setup. Here's what I'll be running:

Stock bottom end 346 LS1
P1 or D1 Supercharger @ 8 psi
317 heads, 9.5:1 CR
Futral F7 Cam (224/230 +114LSA 0.585/0.595)

I currently am running a TR224 +112 which I am running Comp 918 springs (rated at 0.600" lift) and TSP hardened push rods. I would really like to transfer the springs from my 241 heads to my new 317 heads. My question is, will these springs be enough for me? I plan on revving to 6,400 RPM. thanks!

I had them when I ran a T-trim at 11lbs and 6400 RPMs or so and they performed fine. I run Patriot golds now.

What was your cam lift?

How many miles are on them? I would personally get some Patriot golds just to be safe. I had some 918s fail on me, and I run a 232/234 .595/.598 cam. Your cam seems around that max lift area... Sell those and get some Golds.

Are you boosted? If so how much psi? Mine only have about 5K on them....

You would probably get by using unless they have alot of miles on them. With the boost behind them I would have to suggest going to a nicer dual spring setup. I would never build a customers car for boost with them but if you are on a very very tight budget use them but keep new springs on the top of your list.

Thanks for the info. I am not on a super tight budget with my build, but it does feel nice to be able to re-use a few parts! I suppose I might be able to sell my CC918's...

Mine has comp 918s on it with a .580ish lift cam and is seeing 15psi and hasn't missed a beat. But, it makes peak power at 5400rpm so it doesn't even push them in that respect.

I think it was 5.85ish.
