Default Do I need L92 specific valve seals for my L92 heads?
Looking at picking up some valve seals for my L92's. Do I need to get the L92 specific ones for my heads or can I use a regular ls based seal. The L92 specific seals have that built in base and the regular LS seals don't. Do the L92 specific seals not need a spring seat?

are you going to run an aftermarket valve spring that comes with its own spring seat? if so, you will want the standard seals, with no seats.

The heads are bare. I am buying parts to assemble them. All I have so far is intake/exhaust vavles. I want to go with a beehive spring.

The stock seals are fine with beehive's.
