Default Comp 918 Springs?

So I heard you Hemi guys can use Comp 918 springs for the LS1 on a cam swap? Is this true? Just curious.

That is what Comp Cams recommends with their HEMI cams.

Yep, it's true. The 5.7L uses a beehive spring. There is a 918 specifically for the Dodge that has a slightly stiffer seat pressure but you definitely can use the LS1 models too.
Hey Coltsteele, hello from Mike from DTW ( ktm520exc over there...)

Yeah, one guy Motohead i believe got it to work. Everyone else has been codes, but as far as running right and tuning is concerned, everyone's head in pretty much in a hole

How is it running? Any noticable lope to it? Has the computer rejected it like it does most all other things?
