rev 1116/7716 rated pressure??

If anyone knows the open/closed rated pressure of the rev 1116/7716 please post it.

I'm trying to compare these to PP gold daul springs that are 135lb/380lb & good up .650 lift

These will be used on a g5x2 cam only setup with Y/T's and I'm trying to avoid valve float and not have to go with comp R lifters.

i'd be a little weary of the 1116's. lots of people have had them break (including me). i've even heard of several of the "new model" springs breaking. just FYI

I had 2 of the 7716's break in my car, and when I replaced them all I had another one that was bent but didn't break. This was in 3000 miles. Never even taken my car to the track or raced it yet.

I have 1,500 miles on the older REV 1116's and they have held up to over 100 drag strip passes, and some hard road miles. My spring pressure was the same as above.
