Default Cam

Ive got a Comp 224/224 .581/.581 114LSA in my '00 M6 T/A ... im thinkin about upgrading to something bigger, possibly a Torquer 232/234 .595/.598 or a Comp 231/237 .598/.595. I have the Comp '918s so would i need to upgrade to a Dual Spring? I have thought about just sticking with my 224 since i put down 380.5 RWHP on stock intake, stock heads and Full exhaust but going with a bigger cam is something ive thought about. Just wanted some feedback.
Thanks

you'll be fine. I ran a 602 lift for over 10K miles with 918's. Not a single problem

you should be fine, just shim them to .050 coil bind if you're a little worried.
