I would run a dual spring with less than 400lb @ .600" lift. That should keep you safe and a little more reliable.

get you some ls3 valves which are lighter. i run ls3 heads with psi 1511s (i know most prefer dual springs) but i trust the psi and pac single springs. i do run them with titanium retainers to lightened up my valvetrain. nice looking heads.
