Default What kind of valve seals are these?

I am replacing the ones on my car and these are the ones I pulled off. What are these normally used on? I have not seen them on LS1 heads before. The base on these are thicker then the stock ones. Trying to figure out if I use stock seals on mine with the stock bases if it will hold up on my setup with the heads

There was a change at some year of ls1 seals. I would just run the stockers depending on which springs you have.

Hm ok. I guess I will just take the old lower base from the stock heads and use it on the with the new ones then. I think these bastards are the cause of my oil consumption problem. Will know soon enough.
