Comp 987's too much for LPE 219??

Who think's the comp 987 sping is too much for the LPE 219 cam with 1.6RR=.560 lift? I did searches, some people say they are great, and some say they are too much.

Both LPE and CompCams said that the 987's are the proper springs. LPE now sells Lunati stuff though so you may want to check that out. The ramps on the "219" cam need a beefy spring.

Perfect, I was just being iffy because I did a bunch of searches, and some say they are fine and some are not so sure. I am going to order them today, thank's guy's. I really get's me that AFR charges $2000+ Canadian for heads, and can't even give you a decent valve spring.

That is the same spring I am running with my 219. Set pressure is #110 and open #320. That was with some machining of the heads.
