Default comp 918's on FMS cam.

I already have a set of new comp 918 and titanium retainers. Looking to install a F11 or F13 cam. Should I get better springs or will these work.

Call Futral.

It's their cam, they know the lobes, lift, etc.

They'd be the best to ask.

It'll save you time instead of waiting on here for a response.

Generally, if you're under 0.600" lift with the 918s you're good to go.

918's are fine but duals will give you that extra peace of mind.
