Default What is Comp Cams 26918 spring installed height?

Comp advertises 130# seat load at 1.800 installed height. With their retainers do they set to this height on stock heads, stock valves, or do they set up less? My factory valves and retainers measure a little less installed height. The seat load would be greater than the 130# advertised load.

Same with their 26915 springs.

I have checked and installed them from 1.780" up to 1.810".
Springs are + or - 10 lbs. This is the acceptable range of variance according to most spring manufacturers. I have only lost 10 lbs. with 918 springs with 20,000 street/strip miles FWIW.
