Looking for valve springs

Anyone know where I can get valve springs that will support 600 lift. Looking for the cheapest deal you can find even though I do want them to hold up of course. And are 600 lift springs an oem fit and ok with aluminum heads ?

Thanks

Re: Looking for valve springs

Look at the Comp "behive" conical springs. No machine work required and just fine on alumimun heas as they were origionally designed for the LS1 i believe.

Cheap is no good on valve springs. IMO the $20-30 you can save on no name brands is not worth the risk of a dropped valve. Now least expensive place..... different story

I'm guessing the ex612 are good for a 600 lift right? If so pm me with a price and I'll probably take them.

Yes the 612's are a single coil and they are good to 600 lift. they also dont require any machining
