Ls3 valvesprings = ls6 valve springs, or??? I picked up a set of yellow conical valve springs from a 1300mile ls3 from a '10 camaro ss.
My first instinct was to think that they are the same as the ls6 valve springs, since both the ls6 and ls3 cams have similar lift values, and rev out to similar rpm's stock.
The only thing that makes me think otherwise, is the fact that the ls3 has a MUCH larger and therefore heavier intake valve. Surely gm didn't use the same spring?!?
I traded a set of cam swap rods I made for them, so I'm really not out anything
