          I wish the pics where bigger, they from what i see it looks awsome. What do you mean you can feel the diffrence, does the engine run smoother, do you notice better throttle response? Let me know, id really like to change mine out to high proformace.

                            I AM talking about the "caps" on top of the springs. You MUST run ls1 or ls6 retainers with the ls1-ls6 springs. It is not a commonly known fact, and it has been giving MANY of us problems. just an FYI.

                              that looks sweet, where did you get them? What kind of performance gains did you get from them?
