We have 170 mph Stockers and a few racers are worried about 200lb spring pressure.

I was racing in the 70's, a 428 Cobra Jet ,and set the B/SA record at 11.50 with a street driven Mustang , this was at a time when stock was stock ,to day I seen a 428 Cobra Jet go 10.15 ,one has to say to them self's between the enhancements that some are questionable ,and the tires that are way better now , how do they go so much faster with the same old FE , I am not worried about 200 Lb. spring pressure ,if I can get a lifter that , I could buy at a reasonable cost ,and get it in a reasonable amount of time , I ordered over six months ago and nothing not even a call !
