Default Springs for Comp Cams 306 cam

I was wondering what kind of springs i should use for a cc 306. I have stock heads with 1.6 rockers. I was also wondering if anyone has some input on the 306 cam.
thanks

should be able to run comp918s, check with comp for sure.

i wouldnt recomend this cam if you dont have ported heads, gear, or a higher stall. this cam pulles very hard up top. the stock heads and drivetrain wont work very well with it. itll work but the full potential of that cam will not be realized

Whats the max lift on the cc306? I have comp 918s on my heads that required no machining or anything and they are good up to .600 lift.

its valve lift you have to worry about not cam lift. so take your cam lift numbers and multiply that times 1.6 or 1.5 whatever your rocker arm ratio happens to be.

WERD on the gears part...i'm still running 3:42's and the car really does not pull until about thr3000 RPM of course then you can run it on up to about 6550 RPM or so, but you deff need gears and a stall, i've got some seriously ported heads and i don't think that even they flow enough for this cam you might think about a 305 or a JOE O cam.
