it is VERY difficult (if not impossible) for them to remedy any problems there might be with a spring by reading about it on the internet! So please, call CompCams at 800.999.0853 (that's their toll free tech line), and tell them you've got broken spring(s) and want to know what to do with them! Their customer service is second to none and they want to speak to you! Again, the only way they can fix a problem that might exist is to deal directly with the customer with the springs!!!

I spoke with my contact at Comp today, Chris Mays. If you have a spring batch number that is numerically less than 054168 you have the potential to have a bad set of springs. If you have a batch that is below this number, contact Chris Mays at Comp at 901-795-2400 extension 505. I just received my new springs next day air.

P.S. Mods, you may want to make this sticky for a while...

Hmmm nice find... I'll have to check into that since I have a used set of 918's in a box waiting to be installed.

Just checked my new heads that came in yesterday ant that's what they have.
Glad I checked. I was going to order the crane springs but I think I will go ahead and use these.

There are several bad batch no.'s from what I have read and they are supposedly replacing all of them upon request. I read they are sending them out next day air with a return shipping label included to send the old ones back within 20 days.
