Need help choosing valve springs Got a good deal on a cam but i need some help choosing a set of valve springs. Here is the motor specs
LH6 aluminum 5.3
Flat top Pistons
317 heads
Vic Jr intake
Will be running the fitech throttle body
It's got an ls6 cam and springs in it right now but if I'm going to change the cam I'd like to do the springs too, just not too sure where to start.

OEM and aftermarket are using beehive springs for a lot of reasons. I'v been racing with them for years with good results.

My stock, except for some Comp; early, low spring pressure beehives, Ti retainers, pushrods WAY BACK when it was 1 year old (bought/ordered it new in 12/99) LS1 has gone 185K+ miles, not all of them easy either.
IF the damned lifters did not go out (and it's not even all of them), necessitating a head removal/rebuild, it probably could have gone another 150K+ miles!!

This definitely won't be a daily driver. Street but mostly strip use.
The other issue I'm trying to work through is if my mix match of parts is going to work together. The cam has a single bolt timing gear so I need to change that as well Im trying to figure out if I can use my 6010 msd with the front mount cam sensor. I know I can extend the harness and switch the wires to make that work.
