Cam & Valve Spring & RR Questions....HELP!!

ok i'm rebuliding my motor and with the cam i'm using i need different springs for it to work with RR's. i bought some CompCams 924-16 springs off of ebay with the retainers. It is a double spring setup ( i guess for Big Block Chevy's) but the guy said he used it on an LT1...

ok..here are the spec's (found on the web and papers that i do have)

CAM: zz9 from TPIS
duration @.050 225/240, Lift .525/.558 on a 112 LSA. ZZ-X Hyd Roller

Springs: Comp Cams Double Spring
http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerc...62&prmenbr=361

1.520'' diameter double spring w/damper. Valve lift up to .640''. 125# @ 1.880'' closed, 315# @ 1.280'' open, coil bind @ 1.200''

RR's: GM High Performance Self-Aligning Aluminum
3/8th stud. 1.6's "Valve life w/ this rocker arm Excedds .575 inches
"do not install if spring diameter is larger than 1.450 inches"

just from looking at this it looks like the springs will not work..or will they??... if you can PLEASE post w/ a link of what spring i need for this setup, i would like to have a bigger spring just to be on the safe side...when it comes to highperformance motors i have the short end of the stick..but i can sit and talk about computers, networking, and wireless allll day long

just go to cmotorsports.com and ask for the 612 kit. you get the springs the locks retainers for 109. and they fit the stock seats no machining and you do not need comp r rollers. the install hiegth is 1.80 and the pressure is 135 closed and 345 open. that is not a very aggresive cam in my opinion the 612 springs will more than hold it. and everything is new
