You need .060 minimum clearance from coil bind to maximum lift. Using either the Patriot Gold or Extreme will put you in the safe zone. The Extreme has a higher rate and subsequent over the nose pressure. For aggressive lobes, the higher spring rates are beneficial.

I have the Patriots good to .660 on my Futral cam... .646 lift on the cam. For the 20 bucks extra I figured it's well worth it and have a little extra room and be on the safer side.
