    wuts up guys!! i was wondering, what is the biggest cam i can put on my truck since i'm currently running with Z06 springs because the previous owner left them on wen he had a cam on it...he had the tr220/220, .551/.551, 112LSA...i want to put the exact same cam back on but I was just curious if i should keep them or go with the 918 springs. would i see any difference in cam performance with those springs???....thanks guys!!!

    my cam's lift is 563 i think, and thats about the most you can go or you can go a bit more on these springs not sure. Their the yellow ones right?

    i dont know bro, i bought my truck with them in already along with the LS1 cam...i know they can sustain that cam cus they&#39;ve done it before, but i&#39;m just curious if they&#39;ll give me the same cam performance as the 918springs.

    Cool

    They&#39;re maxed around 0.570"... there is NO reason to run lift over 0.550" on stock heads, there is maybe 6-9cfm to be gained going from 0.550 to 0.600"... that&#39;s basically no power for excessive valve action.
