  • Spring Question

    I just recieved my new springs from Summit but had a concern. Ben mentioned that the most spring pressure that the stock 3500 lifers could take is in the low 300's

    here is the set i bought...

    26918-12 "Hi-Performance GM V6 valve springs"

    26918 -Single Beehive Ovate

    O.D.: 1.055/1.290
    I.D.: 0.650/0.885
    Seat Load: 130@ 1.800
    Open Load: 333 @ 1.150
    Coil Bind: 1.140
    Rate(lbs./in.): 313

    "Designed for LS1, LS2 and LS6 engines when a performance cam is used. This spring, when combined with the appropriate titanium retainer, will outperform almost every spring package in the Gen III engine. This spring is designed for a maximum of .600" lift at the valve, so it is the most ideal spring for most street and mild race applications."


    Anyone have any expierance with them? I'm assuming they're for the L67..
