Default lt4 valve springs

I have to order my springs for my 1.6 rockers, but how many of each part will I need?

12495492 - lt4 valve spring retainers (set of 16)
12495503 - lt4 valve locks (set of 32)

10212809 - Shims... Do I need these and how many? (part # for 1 shim)
2x 10212810 - valve seals, intake (set of 4)
2x 12564852 - valve seals, exhaust (set of 5)

Thanks.

Everything looks good. You need 16 shims unless you are running dual springs, LT4 springs are single but they are beefy as all hell. So 16 on the shims.

You also need 8 intake valve seals and 8 exhaust valve seals.

And there you go.
