Comp 918 Blu Stripe check in..
Re: Comp 918 Blu Stripe check in.. I've got over 20K miles on my 918's (over 100 track passes) with that .580 cam I got from you (JPR) and it's still running strong, no issues yet. 
Re: Comp 918 Blu Stripe check in.. did you buy the whole spring kit from isky, with the new spring base? i have seen the spring kit and without the matching spring base the dampner is put in a premature bind, as in with the stock one.did you break a spring or the dampner?
Re: Comp 918 Blu Stripe check in.. Great thread, I've been looking to see how 918s are doing.
I've got 16k miles on my pre-stripe 918s (I got them back in nov '01, which I believe was right before the bad batch came out) with a little T1 cam. About 30 passes, and no issues so far. Thinking about having a couple pulled off an checked for seat pressure soon.

Re: Comp 918 Blu Stripe check in.. 10,000 miles on my pre-blue stripe 918's. 8,000 miles with TR 220 cam and 2,000 miles with ASA cam rev to 6,600 rpm. No issues here. But then my lift now is only .525.

You can probably go with the 918's without any problems.
