How "good" are the stock Hydraulic Roller Lifters in either a R/C LA block or a Magnum block? By good I mean is there a limit on Valve Spring in terms of pressure over the nose? A safe RPM limit? A limit on how much lift they will handle? I am not looking at something radical, just reliable through the occasional 6500 blast.

they are with comp 901-16 springs and .485/.485 lift

been to 6200 rpm and no valve float so far with them.
