Default Who has the best single spring?

Who makes the best..?
Or I guess I should say who has the leased problems

Current cam is 218/224 563/568 114LSA going to keep it and run SC,

I am using the Manley 221423 spring now on my LS1 heads
but need new ones for my 6.0L truck heads.

Thanks

The Comp 918's are rated up to .600 lift

How about K-motion? Their K-750's handle .610 and are dependable H-11..

Can the 918's or the Isky's be used with a stock cam in a 99 ls1 or do the work better w/aftermarket cams?
