They are good up to .550 lift. Not really sure what you are asking about them for, but remember new springs are cheap insurance, if you are going to use a cam with more than that much lift get new springs IMO. It's not worth the risk of breaking a spring and on top of that you will be losing HP.

Comp 918's cheap insurance and can be used inplace of the stock springs.

Patriot Gold dual kit, an even better choice but will call for different seals and what not.

The yellow springs are stock and will coil bind if used with lift much more than 0.550. We designed the 18's to be able to safely go 0.600 without bind and have great life with a variety of cams.
