Default stock valve spring specifications

Where can I find the stock valve spring specs on a 2002 Z06? I want to compare with aftermarket springs. I want to replace with something close. (already broke one). However I don't want to over stress the rest of the valve train with a heavier spring. I don't plan on a cam or other mods in the future...... just want to fix the bad springs. (thanks GM ) Any input is appreciated

I am pretty sure the 2002 springs were the same spec but different part number than these 2004.
