Comp 921 duals or PRC gold duals?
Just need to know if the comp 921 are as good as the prc duals and if they'll handle my new cam (246/257 .632/.645 112+4). They are coming on the set of heads that I am buying off a member here on the board and I want to make sure they're good, if not, I can swap my prc kit from my stock heads onto them, cuz I had just replaced the springs about 100 miles or so before pulling the motor for the build-up, so they're basically brand new!!! Let me know what you guys think, thanks!!!

no, they're terrible and you should swap. then ship the entire 921 kit to me for $100
921's are some of the best duals out there. why you'd want to swap them out i am not sure.

Devon the 921's are two independent pieces, the innner springs slides easily inside the larger spring. This causes a harmonics problem and I've heard that the springs start slapping at high RPM's.
I believe the Crane's inner spring is wound tightly to the outter spring and is more like one piece eliminating this problem.

I was in a shop recently dicussing which duals I was gonna upgrade to.
The guy had every phucen spring that you could think of in there and I beleive he found the Cranes to be working best.
I'll call tomorrow to double check. and call you.
This guys said 921's are **** and and they also lowered the 918 singles to 600 lift so they could sell the more expensive 921'S.
Before the 921's came along the 918's were rated to 650.

Question it all you want. If 921's were **** then they wouldn't have a good reputation.

No I don't know your feelings about Berry.
You don't even know the man.
My motor runs like a ****.
Your making your judgements based on what others have said that proved false.
Berry puts the 921's in if that's what the customer has to have.
He had 3 boxes of them on his shelf.
His comments were based on customer feed back.
I was just trying to be helpful before you put the motor together.
I wish only the best for your project, I know how much you have in it.
