Green stripe springs should have come from Manley. Are you sure these are Comp Cams springs?

Sorry to see your problems bro..........

Wilde Racing,
I included my batch # and purchase date and maybe (I hope) that is why he didn't offer me a replacement set. I have about 6k on it since the install, including dyno time with no issues and now... you guys have me wondering (hmmmm).

man...this thread has me worried. I bought 918's last year but we're still working on the truck so I've never even fired up the motor yet....I'm going to call them with my batch # and see what happens.

Well i finally put some mile on the engine. On my way to work this morning i did some logging and did a few WOT's 521 lbs torque @ 5psi and only 9* of timing. I need to do some tuning to get rid of the KR. It feels alot stronger than the old engine. I'll tune for 5 psi for now and after a get a few thousand miles on it i'll up it to 8-9 psi. I really need to get the wide band. BTW i never heard anything back from comp. Guess i'll just write it off.

I didn't have a batch number so that is why he replaced mine....

Does anyone have a number that I can actually get through to someone at Comp about these? I left a message for Chris May and haven't gotten a response in 2 weeks.

Try their web site and under contacts you can send them an e-mail. That is how I contacted Chris. He did respond promptly, within a day.

Well thats good news then about them breaking the first 20 min, not for the guys that have had them break but for me. I have been to the stutter box a few times with this thing, it is still alive, guess i have to wait to see what comp says...
