Default Stock LS1 valvesprings. How many miles befor they loosen up?

Many have said that the stock springs are somewhat weak regarding the cam profile they are supporting and will loosen up rather quickly.

Is this true? Although, I don't drive my car much, everytime I have it out, I do a lot of high RPM driving. Is this something I should be lookin out for? <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />

Get some ls6 springs in there when you can.
It will hold up better than the stock springs.
especially at WOT
