ls6 valve springs & RSI valve spring compressor

bambooi · 01-09-2010, 08:27 PM

I changed out my valve springs today. I have stock ls6 valve springs(19900 miles) for sale for 15 bucks.

I also have a rsi spring compressor which is a copy of the Crane valve spring compressor. It can do two springs at time. This will work on ls1/ls6 cars. Here is a pic of what it LOOKS like:

This is better than the ones you can rent which supposively can break bolts in the head. I bought this for 89+shipping so around 100 bucks.
I will sell for 80 bucks. I just got this Friday and don't need it anymore.

cam swap?

I did not put in a cam. Those are not my springs or the actual tool. That is just a picture to show what the rsi spring compressor look like. I put in PAC 1518 beehive springs. After doing some research and talking to some people, forced induction is my plan but it won't be anytime soon.

APS kit would be NASTY!! Can't go wrong with a procharger though.

I would like to get a single kit like the kentucky turbo kit, but he only makes them for the f-body currently or maybe a hinson single kit.
