Default Valve springs - Boosted

Hey guys,

just did a test of my current crane dual valve springs. One was 110 ftlbs and the other was 90 ftlbs seat pressure. Lloyd Elliot wants me at 170ft lbs. he’s suggesting Lunati 73925K5 dbl spring kit. Is there any other options to suggestions out there? Heard PAC or PSI makes a good spring but can’t seem to find part numbers for the LT1!
