We have these in stock for $139.99, plus you will need a set of spring seats ($44.99) and the titanium retainers ($149.99) We have several customers who have been using these with our TR224 series cams with no problems so far.
We have these listed on our web page at:

Re: Double Springs - no machining I plan to install your TR 230/224 over the winter. Do you think the singles would handle this cam, or should I go with the doulbes you mention? ... because we'e talking about 159.99 for the 918s vs. 334.97 for the Doubles. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Re: Double Springs - no machining Are the doubles that much better? i mean as long as the lift isnt over .56X i thought you would be fine with the 918s. but with the 230 the lifts higher so maybe the double would be better. anyone agree or am i way off?

Re: Double Springs - no machining I like the peace of mind that the double springs offered me. BUT, you need the retainers and spring seats that West Coast Cylinder heads produces, not the ones that REV makes.
