The 26918's are good to .635" lift and duration is unlimited.

Duration has nothing to do with spring life. Thats why ASA cammed cars run 235+ duration with an LS6 spring. Lift is what you need to look at. From what I understand, the 918 is good to .600 lift. However, I wouldn't go that high. My recommendation on max lift for a daily driven street car would be around .560-.570ish. No spring is perfect, and all brands have been known to fail...
