Default spring pressure and stock ls1 heads

If I were to attempt a solid roller in an ls1, would the added spring pressure tear the threads/pedestals out of the heads? Lets say....225# seat, 600# open?

How aggressive are you going with the cam? You should have no problems with a quality shaft-mount set-up with those spring pressures.
