Default Can anyone confirm if the LS3 & LS9 valve springs are the same?

I plan to use the LS9 cam in my blower setup but I wanted to confirm that the LS3 valve spring were the same as the LS9. Lift is only slightly more with the LS9 so valve springs should not be any issue but I wanted to confirm that. Thanks

If you don't like the forums don't use them.

It only took 5 minutes on SDPC's website to look up the p/n's. They are different. If you weren't too lazy or the real idiot in this post, you would have known how to do that.

LS2, LS3 and the LS6 used the same spring. The LS1 is different.

I want to know also. I have confirmed that the LSA is not the same as a LS1, LS3 or the L92.

If I get brave I may pull the valve cover off the LS9 and take a look.

When you say LSA you mean the cam right? it is 122.5 in the LS9.

Oops...... no I meant the CTS-V Cadilac LSA engine. It's the baby brother to the LS9.

556 Horsepower TVS 1900 Supercharged with a very small cam.

I'll know more about the springs tommorrow.
