Hi Keith,
from what information I can find, the edelbrocks have 100lbs seat pressure, and measure 1.44" OD, whereas the Comp Cams have 112lbs and 1.509" OD.
So, if anything the springs I am using are softer than spec.
I have the 10° comp cams retainers and locks, so I could change after my initial 500miles when I re-torque the heads, what do you think?
I used elf 5W30 synthetic as break in oil.
Mark
