To do things right you'll need to run a hardened locator like comp's 4771.. which is a 1.550 OD locator.. which will need machining.
Sounds like way too much spring for a .550ish lift XE grind IMO. Either way, whomever is setting up your heads should be able to select the proper stuff for you I'd think

What shims did you use? How much lift would this setup hold?

I use those with some hardened shims, the shims are a cup style & the spring sits real nicely, no machining required.
