CC306 w/ beehive springs

Well I'm buying cam,springs, retainers from this guy and he said that the beehive springs is what comp cams recommend to go with the 306?? Is there any extra stuff I need to buy before i do my cam swap? I just want to be prepared!! As I will be doing this over spring break and can't afford to not have a special part and all the stores be closed! Thanks in advance!

I don't know about the beehives. I was just wondering if you made a deal with Ryan?

Re: CC306 w/ beehive springs

Comp Beehive Spring Setup for stock LT1 heads:

26915 or 26918 springs (depending the pressure you want)
795-16 retainers (10*)
614-16 locks (10* +.050")
4705-16 spring seats

On a stock aluminum LT1 head this setup should
result in a 1.745" installed height. At this installed
height the springs should be good for .610" lift with
a .050" safety margin.
