I think my cams might be too rowdy for my valvetrain. Or just rowdy enough.

Valve Spring specs:
13.00mm - max lift
25.50mm - coil bind
180lbs @ 11.50mm lift, open pressure
9.60lbs/mm spring pressure

Cam Specs:
12.30mm - Intake lift, high lobe
288 - Intake duration, high lobe
12.10mm - Exhaust lift, high lobe
286 - Exhaust duration, high lobe

So that leaves 0.70mm between intake cam lift, and valve spring max lift. I'm weary of the spring pressure at that height. It calculates out to 187.68lbs at max lift pushing back. Most manufacturers recommend 1.5mm difference between max cam lift and coil bind. (which I have like 13mm until then), but I'm worried about the seat pressure becoming too much.

What have other people ran spring-wise with the same cams?

MWR springs usually

MWR
unknown, not advertised on their site. just says "good up to 12.5mm lift"
(reason I wouldn't buy them. I had to pry for cam specs before they released them)

Eibach
12.5mm max lift
25mm coil bind

Ferrea
13.5mm max lift
24mm coil bind

and for comparison, my Supertech specs:
13.0mm max lift
25.5mm coil bind

On the MWR stuff, one listing with the retainer/spring combo says 35% stiffer: http://www.monkeywrenchracing.com/product_info.php?cPath=44_77_103&products_id=1099 but springs alone are 20% stiffer confused http://www.monkeywrenchracing.com/product_info.php?cPath=44_77_103&products_id=128

I think I'll be fine, but someone brought up this topic on a Celica forum (most active for 2zz internal work)

Just bought a PowerFC and got my intake in the mail. I think I'm going to wait for the alternator and water pump to go out before I buy new ones. I'm too broke to keep doing preventative maintenance on this anymore.

Motor is going in very, VERY soon. Might start on it early next week.

bought a bunch of stuff I don't need

7.2lb flywheel for the 2zz (lightest one on the market)
Building all the wrong cars - Page 29 Fidanza-lightweight-flywheel-2zz-engine

More chassis bracing. Braces the frame rails to the steering rack. I already have the large center brace pictured. There's also a rear brace, but I think it will interfere with the oil cooler stuff on my 2zz or the Moroso oil pan.
