LSK Lobe ?'s
LSK Lobe ?'s I've been reading quite a bit on the LSK lobes offered by Comp Cams. I have a few questions for those who are running them.
How many miles are you driving (average month, for example)?
Have you checked any of the spring rates or free length since installation?
Is there a recommended mileage/time interval for spring replacements?
I drive 3000 - 4000 miles a year, and could probably get 2-3 years on a 10K swap interval, which I have seen posted here before. Although that seems pretty low, I would consider it acceptable. I would hate to change every year, and would probably stay with an XE or XE-R lobe if that is the case.
So, who is running these, and what do you think? Thanks in Advance!

I was told by john at TSP that it shouldnt have a problem living 3 years at around 2-3K a year. I also asked him if that spring would have a problem if it see's fewer miles living atleast that long. I dont have the cam in the car yet, but we'll see.
The LSk is easier on the valve closing side, wearas the XE-R is a litlle more rough, but the LSK has more lift. I can't see the diffrences in spring life being that much diffrent between the 2. I used the LSK on the intake and a solid profile on the exaust.

I put about 1000 miles a month on my daily driver. LSK lobes on intake and exhaust. So far so good.
