GEEZ - get a set of springs and do it right or do you feel lucky? Some can get by .
This is what happened with a 474 lift cam with stock springs on a 360. Granted it had short springs with rotators (a lot of 360's have them). Coil bind is not cheap. Plus your stock springs have how many miles on them????? Pictured is only partially showing the damage. A set of springswill be well under a hundred bucks so -------------


Clean it, if it's Dirty. Oil it, if it Squeaks. But: Don't fix it, if it Works!
