Needs more displacement. 4.3 v-6 is .5 less thatn athe 4.8. The 4.8 is .5 less than the 5.3. Big difference. Even withe the two cylinders missing, tThe 4.8 is just too small

I'd buy them new (GM P/N 12565117), you can get them for ~$5.50 each, or $88 for all 16 of them. Springs are too important to be messing with used or unknown.
Alternatively, I ran across this part (GM P/N 12499224) that might actually be a kit containing all 16 LS6 springs. If someone can verify the part number....it's only $44.80.

Naked AV,
Tell me all about your cam. Where is the true power at (rpm)?
I have 3.73 gears in the back. Are you still in CA? If so does your truck pass smog with the new cam?

Seriously, the power is all over. And yes, I'm in CA, but there will be no problem passing smog, though I don't have to do it until 2008.
