What springs?
221/221 .558 lift.
What springs are best to use?
Perfer to be able to use the stock retainers, and have no machining needed to fit.

LS6 or LS2 behive springs are good to .550 and should be ok.
Comp 918 blue stripes are good to .600 if you wanna go that route.
All can use stock seats and retainers.
Good luck! :thumbs:

midwayman,
I bought that exact cam, a Lunati 221 .558 114 lsa, and I went with the comp 918's (blue-striped). People have used these without any problems and like mentioned above they are good up to 0.600.
Good luck with your decision.
