I got z-28 springs on my truck and a 00012 luniti cam. thats .515 lift...but I got 1.6 on the intake with 1.5 rockers on the exhaust. so that should put my lift approx .537 or real close. I have no coil bind and have really twisted it purty tight. hit 8000 a few times and have had not a bit of problem.... The machine shop I worked at when I built the engine said you can get real close to .550 but not recomended.. very short spring life
