You can let kickstart set it up then match Monitor information from XF86Config file produced then copy XF86Config files to replace it. We have situations where some monitors aren't detected at all ( Unknown Monitor ) and others report bogus values.

I think giving the -hsync -vsync parameter in kickstart file is better moreover we have very recent monitor and very old ones. Then having a conservative setup is not really an issue.
