i ran the 921's, they are a great set of springs!!
i tried the revs this time around, but will probably be going back to comps, but with the cam he has i think a good set of PP or similar springs will do fine for im, and save him hundres

Seriously, I don't know if there is a dollar's worth of difference between them, but I'm banking on the Comp's living up to their price!!

And I thought this latest crop of wondercams were had huge lift (t-rex, TSP magic, etc...)
Exactly what are they recommending that cam for?

Slowhawk, i heard the same thing about the revs, unfortunatly it was after i already bought them and had them on. i will be changing them to either PP or 921's this winter.
