Tpis springs and cam

Anyone use part or cam from tpis, if so how are they ?

I needed some new springs for a new cam and was looking at the one they sell. Has anyone ever used these or their cams.

Comp grinds their cams, nothing special AFAIK. Don't know where they get their springs.

TPiS was all the rage for LT1 modifications back in the mid-90's. They seem to have become a minor player in the LT1 market over the years - but then even SLP has written off the LT1. I bought some of their parts way back then, and they were all quality stuff. Myron Cottrell was a hands-on racer, and was very willing to take the time to answer questions, and help you out.

Their throttle body is fairly nice, other than that you will pay way too much and get very little in return.
A friend swears by them, his stroker f-body is slower than my junkyard shortblock Caprice.
