Anyone out there try beehive springs on the standard street AFR195's? If so which parts-springs, retainers and cups did you use?..I am having trouble finding sizes that work..calling Comp did not help as they seemed to be just guessing.

Comp"s 26918 with their 787 retainer should be what you want. ;)

Thanks Wolfplace..yes they are set up with 1.800" installed hight and have a 1.450" spring pocket. Stock springs as 120 lbs on the seat, 300 lbs open with a rate of 325 pounds, and I need something equivalent or just a tad stiffer, especially on the seat.
I was looking at the Comp #26918 springs and #4705 spring locators, but Comp couldn't confirm it would work.

Yea, with the boost another 20-30lbs on the seat would be a good idea which the beehives will give you at about 1.75 installed graemlins/thumbsup.gif
