I have a set of LS6 springs for sale in the for sale section. They are used with 14k miles came out of a 06 corvette LS2.

try the sponsors over there on the right: Scoggin Dickey, Texas Speed and Performance, Speed Engineering, etc.

~$60 for the springs
~$100 for the pushrods
dunno about the crank bolt

do you have a flexplate/ringgear holding tool for when you tighten the crankbolt? Sticking something in the starter hole could get you a bent flexplate.

A short chain with a hook works great for this, it slides right on the crank pulley. Just put a bolt through the chain into one of the threaded holes on the block.

there's no need for a flex plate holding tool when doing a cam, swap . . .

just stick a long pry bar threw the crank pulley, and use it for torquing down the crank bolt.

I think I bent my pulley using that method.
