Patriot Gold Extreme valve springs for LS1 vs LT1

Anyone know what exactly is different between the two kits 8501 vs 8501BSBC made by Patriot Performance?

The springs themselves are the same. It is everything else that comes with them are different. LT1's will need the 8501BSBC spring kit. It comes with the correct correct seals, retainers and locks.

Yep LT1 uses 11/32" valve stem. LSx uses 8mm. Different retainers/lock combo, I cant remember if its the retainer that changes or just the locks or both. Good springs tho
