The COMP Cams Valve Springs High Performance is intended for the verified vehicle applications listed below. Match manufacturer part number 26918-16, exact engine, cylinder head, valvetrain, cam specifications, supporting components, clearances, and every product note before ordering.
Key Features
- This is achieved with less spring pressure for better valve control and reduced weight of both the spring and retainer.
- With a.625" maximum lift, these Beehive Valve Springs were designed for Hydraulic Roller cams in LS1, LS2 and LS6 engines.
- COMP Cams Beehive Valve Springs deliver increased valve train stability and a much lighter valve train.
- The unique Beehive shape handles valve train stress more efficiently to eliminate damaging harmonics and increases high RPM horsepower and durability.
- The oval/multi-arc wire shape places the maximum area of the wire at the point of highest stress to handle valve train stress more efficiently and allow better heat dissipation for longer life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this COMP Cams product fit my 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS V?
That application is listed, but confirm the exact engine family, valvetrain, cylinder head, cam specifications, supporting parts, and manufacturer part number.
Are valve springs or other supporting parts required?
Requirements depend on the exact camshaft and engine combination. Verify springs, retainers, locks, pushrods, lifters, rockers, timing components, clearances, and calibration before assembly.
Does installation require engine measurements?
Yes for most internal valvetrain work. A qualified builder should verify piston-to-valve clearance, spring pressure and travel, coil bind, retainer clearance, geometry, lash or preload, and cam timing.
Installation Instructions
Follow the current COMP Cams and engine-manufacturer instructions for this exact part number. Verify clearances, spring pressure and travel, geometry, lash or preload, fasteners, lubrication, cam timing, break-in, and calibration requirements before assembly. Inspect and test the completed installation before full-load operation.
