Default Who has the best single spring?

Who makes the best..?
Or I guess I should say who has the leased problems

Current cam is 218/224 563/568 114LSA going to keep it and run SC,

I am using the Manley 221423 spring now on my LS1 heads
but need new ones for my 6.0L truck heads.

Thanks

How about K-motion? Their K-750's handle .610 and are dependable H-11..

Can the 918's or the Isky's be used with a stock cam in a 99 ls1 or do the work better w/aftermarket cams?
