which springs should I run?
I will be running a patrick g spec'd cam with .598/.600 lift. He recommended using comp 26918's, Pac 1518, or PRC duals. Which springs will be the least maintenance and last the longest? I already have the comp 26918's and the PRC duals in the shop so it is basically in between those.
Thanks in advance,
Jed

. I had nothing but problems with the procharger and can't afford the TVS 2300 anymore. I bought an lq9 with part of the money from selling the procharger, a single head to replace the messed up one, and a patrick g spec'd cam. I don't care about 1/4mile times or how much power it makes anymore, I just want it to be fun to drive and not break anything. I think the internals in the 370ci are fine and will eventually get them checked out. If they are ok i'll put them in a new block and either sell it or put it in a project eventually.Jed

I sold the procharger to get a TVS 2300 but what i thought was a blown head gasket turned out to be a chunk blown out of the head and a groove in the block.

The duals are pretty quiet, the only springs Ive found to be stock quiet are the manleys but the only set Ive installed myself had a spring break after a couple years of use...
