Buddy Club P1 springs and retainers with pro1 cams??
I picked up these springs a while ago for a good deal and I am running type r cams. At that time I had no intention of going with a bigger cam but now that I am I cannot find any specs on these. I remember someone doing a comparison on the BC spec IV cams and the pro1s...the BC springs are reccomended for the spec IV and V cams so I am thinking they would work on the pro1s but I want to know if anyone else has had any experience with these or know the specs.

your right i can't find any specs on the bc springs, but find somebody local that deals them and they should have a spec sheet. compare them to this
Skunk2 Pro -B series Vtec- 311-05-5350
60lbs seated at 1.320 or 33.5mm
210 lbs @ .820 " - 20.828mm
bind @ .720 " 18.288mm
coil bind is really important due to the lift of the pros so if it's not really really close i wouldn't try to find out if it will work or not, quick way to destroy your head

The BC springs are recommended for running their cams. The following are the cam specs from their website.
Spec IV
Intake:
DURATION VALVE LIFT
306° 12.3mm
Exhaust:
302° 11.8mm
Spec V
Intake:
DURATION VALVE LIFT
302° 12.8mm
Exhaust:
306° 11.8mm
From that it seems like they would work for the pro1 but i need more input on this.

Skunk recommends running their valvetrain for the tuner series cams as well. Why wouldn't they? I have friends and I hear other people running Blox, supertech, omni power, ferrea etc. valvetrain with skunk and other cams because some of the mentioned manufacturers dont make cams. This is why I wonder if the buddy club springs are recommended for their cams with about the same specs as pro1 why wouldnt they work?
