Does anyone know the specs of the LT1 springs you can fit to these engines for an upgrade?

Specs I have found so far ar:

Installed Height 1.9"
Seat pressure 134psi
Open Height 1.250"
Open Pressure 424psi
Dia 1.460"

Does this sound right?

LT1 springs are good for cams up to 500-550 lift depending on the brand and are direct fitting. meaning only 1.250 diameter. installed height should be around 1.70 and coil bind should be at least .80"-.100" larger than the lift on the valve.
but they are a perfect spring for any hydraulic cam grind

see page 2 of this pdf under valve springs and look for part#4833
