Max lift on LT4 Springs?

I am interested in doing the Scorpion 1.7rr's soon and i was wondering if the LT4 springs would do the job. This would be on a stock cam, so i imagine the lift wouldnt be too bad. I think i worked it out and with the stock cam and the 1.7's the lift would be about: 506.6/520.2 . The only reason i plan on doing the rr's and not a cam is because i have such high milage. My plan was to do the rr's and just drive it like that till the thing goes, then rebuild something a bit better, throw heads/cam in it, and then id already have the rr's ... minus the new springs i would need. Thanks for any input.

The lift with the hotcam and 1.6 RR's is .525/.525 so I would think those springs should work ok with 1.7's and the stock cam as long as it doesnt exceed .525 lift.
