Replacement Valve Springs for LS6

[Markus 38206]

I've got a LS6 camshaft #3904362. I'm looking for matching valve springs.
Are there some replacement springs (instead of the GM springs 12371061)?

use those as they will work fine and are of a good quaility. they also have a plastic oil shield built into the reainer. i have used these springs on all my BBC street engines with cams of up to .500 lift.

Depends on where you live, but with my location I have received a part overnite that was located about 400 miles away in one of GM's parts distribution centers. Check with you GM parts parts counterman, they can tell you by looking up the number.

Thanks Jim,
I live in Switzerland and I will visit Chicago within the next week. If I knew
where I would order the GM-parts to be shipped to a friend in Chicago where
I could pick them up.

Markus, GM perfomance parts is the website you want. Visit at:

https://www.spoperformanceparts.com/

you can sign in and pick a dealer in or near Chicago, order them and have parts shipped to your friend. I have done this with some parts for my '69 BB engine. Only takes a few days. UPS 2nd day ground shipment.

Marcus since you know the quanity and have the part number, you could just have your friend to to any GM parts dealer and order the springs and you would have them upon arrival. You can order Caddy parts at the Chev counter, but with parts like your springs, you will have to pay for them when you place the order most likely. When the Caddy dealer was closer to me than the Chev dealer I would buy Corvette parts at the Caddy dealership.
Once I wanted to buy four screws. The Chev dealership parts person told me he would have order them and I would have to buy a larger quanity because that is how they would come. Went down the street to the Caddy dealership and was able to order the four screws and they came in separate packages.
