The cam is .602 mas lift on the exhaust, will .600 springs be safe or do I need to stick with my .660 springs? Is there a spring that is between the .600 and the .660?

I'm sure you can make your own. Just wrap some round stock around a pipe in a spring looking manner.

Best news in the world. Trans was picked up today. His supplier was out of the vett servo. But that is easy enough in the truck and the boost valve can be done by dropping the pan. There is a cut out just behind the bell housing that allows access to the boost valve. He is going to order them and hopefully have them in a week or so!

Why don't you just use the sterling for the bobcat and construction equipment? That dump bed is plenty big enough to fit a bobcat in there, hell I've seen backhoes in the back of that size box. I dunno if you upgraded the tranny cooler in the hoe but I would do that especially towing with a 3200. Like I said before, I've got a 2800 stall with the stock cooler but I haven't towed with it

600-602= -2
I've read around its not a long lasting choice to even be close to the max rating, let alone over it
so why not stick with the .660 springs you mentioned?

.600 springs will be fine. You will still be quite a ways away from coil bind.
