springs and lefts what do i need?
its just funny that you'd **** on the beehives (obviously comp 918s), when they're made by the same manufacturer as the patriot springs. I'd recommend a good set of pac 1218s, you can pick the locators and retainers second hand for pretty cheap usually, and the springs aren't too expensive. Comp lifters actually have a suprisingly GOOD track record both hydraulic and mechanical, considering a lot of their other stuff sucks.
I dunno just need to filter the regurgitated internet bullshit with some real info...

Dont listen to all the bad talk about the cc306. Its acutely a really good cam. Call Lloyd Elliot he has some of the best prices on valve springs.. and i wouldnt use the stock pushrods on any kind of proformance build, enless you want to have some major problems. I recomend some trickflow pushrods. you dont want to use a pushrod with a press on ends you want a "GOOD" one pice pushrod..
Yet pac was making the 918's when they had a ton of failures in the early 2000's. Every spring manufacturer is going to put out a bad batch of springs every now and then. Not to mention the new comp 918's are superior to the pac 1218's in spring pressure and spring rate now.
no hecho en mexico **** goes in my car, do what you want. the string of failures 9 years ago didn't compare to the "ton" of failures they had when they switched to associated. What makes you NEED more spring pressure? I run over .380 lobe lift with a steel 11/32" valve and 340# open, but I guess I'm not doing it right unless I run the latest and greatest patriot or prc spring kit they come out with at 430+lbs/in.
