I bought a head gasket set for a 98 Civic EX and was planning on changing the valve stem seals at the same time while doing the head gasket. I've got the Viton seals and half have a silver spring and the other half have a black spring on them, anyone know which is exhaust and which is intake? (No docs with the set.)

thanks..

The answer is the intake valve stem seals have the silver spring and the exhausts have the black.
