Product Details

The COMP Cams 983-1 is a high-performance single valve spring engineered with innovative ovate wire construction for superior valvetrain reliability. Unlike traditional round wire springs, this spring is manufactured from oval-shaped wire that provides more material occupying the same vertical space, resulting in more efficient stress distribution and extended service life.

Key Specifications:

  • Spring Style: Single ovate wire construction
  • Outside Diameter: 1.260 inches
  • Inside Diameter: 0.836 inches
  • Installed Height: 1.700 inches
  • Coil Bind Height: 1.150 inches
  • Spring Rate: 410 lbs/in
  • Seat Pressure: 105 lbs @ 1.700 inches
  • Open Pressure: 310 lbs @ 1.200 inches
  • Maximum Valve Lift: 0.490 inches
  • Compatible Retainer: COMP Cams 751 series (10 degree locks)

Performance Benefits:

  • Ovate wire design provides higher spring rate with more coil bind clearance
  • Advanced processing techniques eliminate life-shortening surface defects
  • Proven to last longer than traditional round wire springs in identical applications
  • Ideal for street and moderate performance hydraulic camshaft applications
  • Engineered for reliable valvetrain control and consistent performance

This valve spring is sold individually and is designed for use with hydraulic camshafts in street and performance engine builds. The ovate wire construction represents a significant advancement in valve spring technology, offering improved durability and performance characteristics compared to conventional round wire designs.
