last time i checked, the minispares ones were ok upto 7k on 1.5:1 rockers? Who needs to go above that on a road engine :o

or are we talking limited mileage sprint/race engine?

Although i dont have any evidence to support, its been widely tested that too much poundage in the springs can cost a significant amount of power. For example mighty mini engines used to use double valve springs, but later some found they were not necessary and went back to the singles which resulted in a 3bhp ain on 60ish bhp.

I've seen the future and tbh its Pie
