1.310 Beehive Valve Spring - LS1

The 1.310 Beehive Valve Spring for LS1 engines from COMP CAMS is engineered for builders and enthusiasts pushing LS performance beyond factory limits. This compact spring delivers the valve control and stability needed when running aggressive camshaft profiles, higher RPM builds, and forced-induction setups. Whether you're modifying a street engine, weekend track car, or performance crate motor, beehive springs are the industry standard for LS1 platforms seeking reliable valve train dynamics without excessive weight.

Beehive springs feature a unique barrel-shaped design that concentrates load-bearing coils near the center, reducing mass while maintaining spring rate consistency across the valve lift range. The 1.310 outer diameter fits LS1 specifications precisely, ensuring proper seating on stock or upgraded retainers without binding or clearance issues. COMP CAMS' manufacturing process provides tight load tolerances and consistent preload, critical factors for preventing valve float at high RPM and extending camshaft lobe life. The lightweight construction—0.16 lbs per spring—minimizes reciprocating mass, allowing higher safe RPM limits and quicker throttle response in modified engines.

LS1 owners upgrading from factory springs to performance camshafts or turbo/supercharger kits rely on beehive springs to prevent valve lash issues and maintain cylinder head integrity under boost. Installation requires matching springs to your specific cam profile; this spring complements COMP CAMS' full LS1 valve train lineup for seamless compatibility. Sold individually—you'll need sixteen springs for a complete LS1 engine—making this an essential component for any serious LS1 modification project. Proper spring selection, paired with quality retainers and pushrods, ensures your engine delivers consistent power and reliability at elevated boost or RPM levels.
