Coil bind…Crap

Ok, first, I know I should have figured this out earlier, but I trusted the place I was getting all my parts through and they said my combo would be good. I don't think they took into account that my rocker arms are 1.65 ratio instead of 1.6.

So I was just figuring, and the springs I have have a 1.090 coil bind and their installed height is 1.750. The lift of the cam with 1.6 rockers is .584/.592. So with 1.65 rockers, that makes it .602/.611. That puts me at .049" below coil bind on the exhaust side, .060" is recommended. Since these are beehive springs, I'm thinking maybe you can push it closer to coil bind, but can't find any info anywhere saying that. Is .049" too tight?
