  • V6 3100 valve springs

    Looking for Gm or aftermarket original conical design stock pressure valve springs. The only thing I found so far is the new replacement GM # 10166343 and VS1642 Federal Mogul springs. Both have too wide a base and too much pressure for the application I need them for. The original Conical 3100 valve spring , which have 1 new one only , has a smaller bottom and the right spring pressure. Any leads or ideas. Thanks.

    New springs only or low mileage 3500 springs (same spec) work as well?

      The new original spring and used ones I tested had less pressure then the springs listed above. Also the bottom was about 1.250 wide and the springs above are 1.350 which is too big for my application , which is a Gm 2.3 quad 4, 16 valve engine. The springs listed above have 72 lbs at 1.700 and the old original conical 3100 springs tested had less pressure. If I could find a aftermarket manufacture that had a lising by OD and ID and spring pressure , I may be able to find a conical or beehive spring that would fit my need. Are the 3500 conical valve springs.
