Default Prc .650 springs

My cam is a 231-235 .625 .605 111+2
Heads I think will be prc stage 2.5 ls6. Not going to mill or anything don't want to deal with valve reliefs. Anyways my question is, I've seen some bad stuff on the springs I already have, (prc). I was wanting to change to BTR but I've also heard great things with prc and don't really want to deal with it. What would y'all recommend? Thanks in advance

Make sure you aren't confusing PRC with PEP. No question, the BTR .660 has emerged as the "go-to" spring but that doesn't mean TSP/PRC springs are bad. The consensus here seems to be that PEP is Chinese eBay junk.

The main springs we had problems with back in the day was the PRC .675 springs. Extremely rare that we ever had a problem with the .650's. That being said, we dissolved all of our old PRC springs and now strictly use PAC springs in our spring packages. We have our PAC .660 dual spring package now and they have been great! If you have any questions feel free to give us a call at 512-863-0900.
