Ordering Valve Seals? Hey Guys,
So I am going to do a valve spring swap and want to buy new valve seals. I found GM part #s for both intake and exhaust but I am not sure if that is for a set (gmpartsdirect lists it as a seal kit) or single seal. (i.e. do I need to order 1 or 8?) Anyone order GM valve seal kits?

When I bought my GM seals, the part#s were different for intake vs. exhaust and the seal material colors were also different (brown vs. black).
The part#s are on here somewhere if you search, I had the dealer look them up (1998 Z28) and the numbers matched.

Those part numbers are the ones I use on my heads and are the direct replacement for the 2002 Pontiac firebird. These I use because they have the spring cup made on them so they may not work in your application because of the dual spring set up you have.
