I am running a TR224 and put on some comp 918's. Worked out great! Not sure on the specs of the ls6 springs, but I would imagine they are not as good as the comp's.

How much lift is your cam? Just courious, needed info for the proper spring pressure.
The ls6 spring has 90 lbs @ 1.8" for the seat 280 lbs @ 1.2" for the open pressure.
The 918 spring has 130 lbs @ 1.8" for the seat 333 lbs @ 1.15" for the open pressure.
Also do you have the hollow stem valves from the 02'-04' Z06?
