Of course not....but...I would be happy knowing that my cam is .600 and my springs are .650 ....AND... they are dual. I'll take any piece of insurance I can get in those days

That's the springs I'm running with my TSP 231/237 cam. 4,000 hard miles and not a bit of trouble.

not 650 but might go .620-.630
along with PP double springs I am pretty sure they will hold up fine
Those are some nice looking springs Terry!!

Wow that price is good. The Comp 921's cost more than that. Even the Crane duals cost about $335. And the Comp and Crane's don't have that high seat pressure. Even
though i have the new 918's, which have 130lbs seat pressure, i like the idea of the
dual springs. I like the idea of peace of mind. Looks like i'll have a set of new blue stripe 918's with titanium retainers for sale soon

Terry have these springs been tested on any setups for a period of time yet? Say...10K miles or so on a .595+ lift cam?
That price is VERY appealing for a spring with that much seat/open pressure
Also, I'm assuming these springs will work with stock lifters? That's a LOT of pressure, what install height for stock lifters?
Thanks,
Josh

Btw.. my lift is .598/.595 and I'm also still using my stock lifters.

Looks I might run these on my...T...E....A.....heads
Lets just hope the heads and the springs play nice with each other

I have a set of 5.3L heads right now that have 987s on them... would these springs work for me since I have larger pockets? Or is there an alternative of these springs for the larger pockets?
