Could I get away with ls2 springs with .559/.562 lift??
Just trying to explore a few options. Looking at the Scoggin Dickey HT1 Truck Cam 214/218 .559/.562 111lsa at wondering if I could get away with doing ls2 springs. IIRC, they are rated to .570 lift so i know it'll be cutting it fairly close.

exactly. i've had good luck with the reliable part so far. still working on making it fast i wouldnt risk it personally. im runnning .650 lift springs on a .581 lift cam. they werent that much more expensive and they came with titanium retainers so thats why i got them. i figured it lightened the valvetrain slightly and was just a little added insurance.

Any idea who's lobes they are? Looking at the duration vs. lift numbers, they don't seem to aggressive, definitely not Comp XER lobes, if Comp, they're probably XE lobes, in which case, you'll be fine. Lingenfelter uses the LS6/LS2 springs on their cams which are ground by Comp and have over .57x lift, and Zippy has installed them on numerous of his customer's rides, as well as his own. His truck has a Comp 222/224 .563/.568 112, and I believe his wife's Tahoe is running a TR224 which has .563 lift. I'd go with them...
If someone donates a used TR220-112 to me I'll be using my current LS6 springs, and I promise to beat on them every day and report back
