I've said it before. I have 918's on mine. They will come out shortly and I will never buy another Comp spring.

Sucks Bro! If the lift of the cam is below the rated.... I would demand Comp replace my engine and sue if they didn't. Needs to be a class action suit going already.

Yea man, this has become an all too common occurance with Comp springs. From what I've read here, the PAC springs that are available from SDPC seem to be the way to go.

I did a search on SDPC website and found nothing on these springs. Anyone have a part number or something?

I believe that the beehive springs are the PAC's but they're not advertised that way, hopefully someone can confirm this...

yeah, those are the ones on my truck. I kinda wish I went with the nitrited ones for extra durability though. This has got me thinking about going with a .563 lift cam instead of the .588 lift I was set on.
