.550" Maximum Valve Lift:

The LS6 valve springs are rated for .550" maximum valve lift, making them suitable for mild to moderate performance camshafts. This lift capability supports most street performance and mild track camshafts. The springs provide adequate pressure to control the valvetrain at higher RPM while preventing valve float.

Blue Beehive Design:

The beehive (tapered) spring design features a larger diameter at the base that tapers to a smaller diameter at the top. This design reduces valvetrain weight compared to traditional dual springs, allowing for higher RPM capability and reduced friction. The blue color coating provides corrosion resistance and is the signature color of GM LS6 valve springs.

OEM Chevrolet Performance Quality:

These are genuine Chevrolet Performance valve springs - the same springs used in factory LS6 engines. GM engineers designed these springs to provide reliable performance and long service life. The OEM quality ensures proper spring rates, materials, and heat treatment for consistent operation.

Reduced Valvetrain Weight:

The beehive design's tapered shape allows the use of lighter retainers compared to dual spring setups. This reduced valvetrain weight improves high-RPM performance by reducing inertia and allowing the valvetrain to follow the camshaft profile more accurately. The weight reduction also reduces stress on the camshaft lobes.
