Michael, you're making this WAY too hard. I'm now counting this as a personal challenge to see how strong my inner will is.

I don't sit around and count pressure plate springs.

Each pressure plate is rated for a certain clamping force. When it is coupled with a particular clutch disc, you get a result.

Now, the only questions you need to ask are:

1. How much horsepower am I making?
2. Am I going to drive like a mad man, or am I going to cruise through Central Park eating an ice cream cone and sipping a milk shake.

You have said repeatedly that you think you have around 450hp. You also say that you never get into the secondaries.

If it never slipped except when taking off before with a pressure plate that was making 1200lbs of static pressure, then you must be driving it awfully easy.

Stay with the pressure plate you have now, respring it to where it's back to 2100, and get a new disc and throw out bearing.

I'm done.
