Comp cams camshaft and springs

This is a Compcams camshaft part# 08-501-8 that I had in my 1990 Camaro TPI 350. I had this camshaft in my camaro for about 15k. I pulled it out cause I was selling the car and I put everything back to stock. The spring set is brand new, I never put the springs on the engine. Springs set part# 986-16. This is the spring set that Compcams reccommends for this camshaft. I paid around $400 for the cam and spring set.

Asking $200 OBO

PM me if your interested.

Re: Comp cams camshaft and springs

I looked all around and I can't find a Max lift on these springs. The only thing I can find that might be what your looking for is the spec for the Coil Bind which is 1.150"

Re: Comp cams camshaft and springs

woould you consider125 + ship to 80915 for cam or 175 shipped for both .Im a little unsure about springs only due to not knowing max allowable cam lift before bind #330 usaully around .550-.600 lift. strange they dont show max cam-lift spec.

Re: Comp cams camshaft and springs

Yes I liked this cam a lot. Gave it a nice little rumble at idle but not too bad. Helped a lot with power on the top end too which was a problem with the TPI engines. The only thing I didn't do which would of helped a lot was large tube runners and a large mouth intake. Cause the standard intake restricts the flow a lot in the higher RPM's.
