Default 160lb seat spring pressure on hyd cam?

A set of TEA heads I recieved from "max's dad" have some nice looking dual springs on them with ti' retainers...

Had them all checked and they are 160lbs on the seat. Holy crap thats alot of spring pressure.

Anyone know if this is gonna be problem with a .625 lift hyd ls1 cam street setup

I was running 155lbs of seat pressure with .600 lift and never had any problems. If you've got steep lobes and bigger valves, expect a noisy valvetrain.
