can i install ls7 springs in a l92 head I got a set of bare l92 heads for 350 and have a chance of buying a complete LS7 spring install kit. Springs, seats, locs, retainers and valve seals. Can i install these springs on a l92 head with stock valves? Im going to be running a stock l92 cam and intake aswell.

I would not run the LS7 springs. the lift values you see will give you false hope. the ls7 has an installed height of 1.960 (according to GM) which nets max lift of .600 (or 1.360) take .160 of that off for a normal LS installed height of 1.8 and you are able to pull ALOT less lift out of them. in fact just using rough math, they would only numerically be able to handle .600-.160 or .440" of lift. Not so amazing now huh? At that point the normal LS6 springs can trump them.
We have the Pac 1218s and 1518s for a really good price and as well as free shipping for all internet orders, the only thing you pay extra is the tax for being in texas. They can utilize the stock locks/retainers/seals, and you are good to go for up to .600/.650 lift on a single beehive style spring.
