With all the spring issues lately; best Behives?

With all the issues Comp and PAC have had recently with their beehive springs, now I am unsure has to the best beehive springs to purchase for my EPS 226/234 113 cam? I heard Damian mention another brand he's been running?

Thoughts, suggestions?

You would be fine with the Pac 1518's. I'm running that same cam for the most part and I've had great success with those springs.

I know several guys running them w/o a single issue. I would imagine the cam you are going with is in the neighborhood of .598/.602 and the Pacs are rated for much higher than that.

PSI are hands down top notch. It's a valvespring AI uses on a lot of their application with great success.
