Default LS Valve Spring Kit SALE

Lunati LS Dual Valve Spring Kits


The LS Dual Valve Spring Kits come complete with dual valve springs, retainers, spring locators, locks and valve seals that are ready for drop-in installation on many popular LS applications. Using a Signature Series Valve Spring, Lunati engineers have developed new wear-favorable, lightweight alloy steel retainers and locators. These designs prevent* chafing in the spring pockets of aluminum heads, making the combination unbeatable for both serious performance street and drag racing. Other features include:

• Locks equipped with inner bead locks; 7° interference angle between locks and retainers causes the locks to clamp valve stems more tightly
• Valve seals are made from Viton synthetic rubber and are steel jacketed to guarantee seals remain tight around guides and are protected from springs
• Viton material is ideal for resisting heat and aggressive racing oil additives that cause swelling and distortion

Would a new spring set provide a little more reliability for the LS7? Maybe less chance of a "blown" motor situation? Thanx.

OK so I guess the question was asked and maybe answered but I'm not that knowledgeable about the answer. I'm getting ready to have my stock heads redone to avoid the dropped valved anguish. Which springs here would be good for replacement of the stock springs? One's that will not place a strain on stock components?

Thanks

I'm in the same boat as you -- 08 Z06 here -- about to be out of warranty for good (5 year power train) and depending on the cost vs a Vehicle One Warranty with the Dennis Fincher guy...

In your research how much would a head/valve job with spring replacement cost?

Or -- even going simpler - how much would a shop charge just to disassemble down to the heads and check for valve guide wear?

Nice of you to post any deals -- but would be even nicer if some of the questions asked here could get answered.

People are more apt to buy a spring kit if they know it will help solve any issues they might be worried about.
