Default What seat pressure?

What seat pressure are you guys running the 918s at?Does it depend on your lift or just the spring?Also what is the correct install height? Thanks in advance

Default Re: What seat pressure?

Valve seat pressure (closed) is not changed by cam lift.

Spring 'Installed Height' does effects seat pressure.

918 springs are recommended to be installed at the stock GM spec of 1.80" 'Installed Height'.

The 918s when installed at 1.80" will yield a 130 LB seat pressure.

Ron,

Here is the link to the 918 springs >
