One of the best spring packages I've found for the SBF head is the Comp Cams 986-16 double spring set. Its a double spring with damper that provides 125# on the seat and around 300# at .500" lift. It'll definitely keep the valves from floating up past 6400rpm. Because they're a double spring, you have to use a smaller teflon valve stem seal and its really recommended to use a hardened shim/cup. I've got a brand new set for sale on my website (still shrink wrapped) and I've also got a used set that have about 60 passes on them. I make a habit of changing springs at least twice a season.
