I would expect them to be fine. The lower idle wouldn't be caused by valve springs and you would see a significant drop in power up top if you were having a valve float issue. If you get a chance, you might pull a couple off and have seat pressures are if you have a local machine shop that could check them. If you just want to replace them, I can get you setup on a set of springs only if you would like. Let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks!

When my valve springs (PRC .660 lift ) got weak, i could not rev over 6500 rpms before valve float, and now with new ones, i shift at 7400 rpms. were i did before the old ones wore out. 15,000 miles. My cam is a .651 lift
