Default Cam break in

Hey guys I installed a new Comp Cam, lifters, push rod, rockers and the edelbrock head. Comp cams says if you have a dual valve spring setup to take the inside spring out when breaking in a new cam, my problem is that this head does have dual springs but it won't come out! Has anyone every had an issue breaking in a new cam with dual springs?

They're trying to reduce the spring pressure for the break-in... What are the spring pressures that they're specing out if you used the Comp cams recommended springs{for that cam} compared to what you've got with the edelbrocks ?? What kind of spring removal tool are you trying to use ?? And lastly...And don't get offended... Is there dual springs on the Eddy head or a spring and dampner ?? Just asking...
