They should be fine. Spend more money for the Caddys if you'll sleep better but since I don't think you'll need to spin to the moon with your SC I would be fine with the LS7's. I have seen LS7's spin 7K+ consistently and perform great.

I'm running them in my 383 build and that will spin to 7K plus. GM wouldnt put a lifter in a motor that spins to 7K STOCK and has a warranty if they werent a good piece. I have heard of ppl doing cam swaps in the new LS7 Z-06's and spinning to 7500 with stock lifters so you should be fine.

LS7 lifters are the standard now for replacing lifters. I doubt you'll have any problems.

what can the stock lifters handle.......

Not sure if this is what your asking but the LS7 lifters are now the oem replacement part so they are stock. I have seen the old style hold well at 7K too.
