Valve seals

[Steve V]

I am looking for some place to buy valveseals that have the spring on top of them. Not the Felpro replacements. These are the type my machine shop uses. He's 1.5 hrs each way so it's easier the buy on line and ship.

My research leads me to believe seals fron a 2000 5.3 gen II V8 will work. Can any of you engine gurus confirm.
