What Springs? Retainers? pics Hello LS1 Tech, i recently purchased a LS6 with build valvetrain. However, owner didnt know much about the parts inside.
Can somebody point what what springs and retainers are in here? rods are also upgraded and i have confirmed it to be the 7956 Comp Push Rods 7.450 .080
It also has cams that are 239 cam, 601 or 604 lift. If some of you can point out to me what these cams might be as well that would be great.

Not sure on the springs but they almost look like GM LS6 springs. If they are, not sure how they are controlling an aftermarket cam.
Hopefully someone else will have another idea on the springs.
Car is pretty neat by the way. Must be a hoot to drive.

Those look like comp 918 springs. I hope the reunions were upgraded
Retainers look stock

does anybody have an idea what cams are in the car?
would i be able to tell what cam it is by opening the front portion of it up by removing the belt and pulley?

Some of the older Pac .600" or .625" lift springs had the Blue strip on them. I purchased a set of heads back in 2009 that had these springs.
I complained to them at this time due to the common failures of the 918's. They assured me they were not the flawed 918's and that they were in fact made by PAC.
I opted to put in dual's anyways.
FWIW.
