Using '02 valve seals on an '01

I know '02 the valve seals and seats were 1 peice design, but didn't '01 and earlier engines have the 2 peice design? Is it ok to use the '02 (1 peice design) in an older LS1 engine?

Don't see why not, unless you are installing springs that have their own seat such as dual springs. If 918's or stock they should be fine.

My 01 had the 1 peice design. The spring kit (PRC) I bought came w/ the 2 peice desigin and that's what's in there now. I think it'll be ok as long as it works w/ the springs you're running.

I upgraded to the 1 piece design when I did my LS6 springs.
