Over camming?

okay my good buddy whose into TPIs says that if i put 1.6 RR on my cc 305 cam i'll be over caming it, yet i see guys with the cc 306 cam and they're using 1.6s?? is it advantageous to cross-use RR lift sizes, like 1.5 rr on the intake and 1.6 rr on the exhaust?? also im runnin a Comp cam, should i stay Comp or won't it matter? I really like the Crane anodized gold rr, which ones are the most efficient for LT1s? also my friend says our stock springs are good up to .540 lift, true?
Thanks
Rob

You might want to read this thread: http://web.camaross.com/forums/showt...hreadid=126165

As far as stock springs go, NO WAY are they good for 0.540" lift. Don't try it, you'll be very sorry. Find someone else for car advice.
