Default Mainsheet Blocks question

Okay....we own Heart of Gold, a 1990 First 35s5. She has mid boom
sheeting and the block setup is getting tired, squeaky and just old.
I'm looking at Garhauer blocks which have working loads from 1150, 2000

and 3000 lbs each. Obviously the prices rise along with the working
loads. I'll need three singles and a double. Does anyone know what the
suggested working load limits per block might be? The 35s5 is a
fractional rig with a BIG main.

You can see the 4 older blocks he

Thanks for any tips!
