Welcome to OSS.
I've always used Progressive fork springs.
If you're replacing, you may as well upgrade.

I've got a 1247cc on my GS1000, it's realy torquie from just below 2000rpm, I love it.
What piston's you using?

Dose anybody know what size valve's are in the gsx600f head?
My manual don't give the valve size
-
I would not be worried about that.

Yes it revs through.
ATU?
If it's reving through in all gears, I wouldn't think it's ATU. As the ATU would not advance in all gears not just top.
-
Dose it rev through the rev range in all gears?
If so can't see it being ATU, probably main jet.
Plug chop is the way to go.

Gsxr750 later slingshot
Can't remember which model (I should as I've get a set on one of my bikes
)

Welcome to OSS.
Don't know if they will direct fit but the gs550/750/850 will all have the same Speedo cable end.
Tank, all the bigger tanks are longer, so not a direct swap
LED headlight, Jeep ones fit with a small tweek of the inner headlight rim.

I used a set of gs500 clocks on one of my bikes, run a wire from the coil but it would only read half the revs.
I'm not a wiring expert, I've rewire bikes in the past with no problems but I just could not get them to work right. So I put Some gsxr clocks on just connected the wires and it worked first time.

Had the old standard ones off my kat, ended up, putting them up for £30 on that site but nobody wanted them so they went to the tip.

The rev counter will only read half the revs the engine is doing. As the gs500 is a twin not a 4 cylinder.
Have you looked at the bandit clocks?

Two types of top end coolers to look at,
1. The type that picks the oil up from the oil way under the ATU cover.
2. The type that picks the oil from the oil way from the cam cover.
Maybe look at putting a extra (small) cooler in fed from the two oil lines at the rear of the barrels going upto the cam cover.
-
The exhaust can make a big difference if it's a open end can.
So carb work still needed
-
The ones that just go from one cam to the other are more just for show. So may say it helps the oil go to each side but I'm not 100% on that myself.
On a standard motor not really needed but they look nice.

MP mite get there stuff from China and put a very big mark up on it for the name, just buy the cheepo Chinese ones, then buy a sticker with the name you want, still the same cheepo Chinese stuff but 1/4 the price
If big names are your thing.
I've seen the same QA throttle I got from China that I paid £15 for, up for sale at more than twice the price by a big UK named seller. Big money, bigger the mug to buy it

Welcome to OSS.
EBC clutch kit NO NO NO NO just give me your money, it will have the same result, a non working clutch.
Did the same mistake years back, it didn't even last 100 miles.
OEM all the time. Go to Robinson's we get a discount

Welcome to OSS.
You may need both a tap rebuild kit and a carb o'ring kit/flot valve, as above.
One way of maybe finding out which one is need attention, is to take the fuel pipe off, with the tap on ever on or rec, if fuel keeps coming out of the tap, the tape need a new rebuild kit.
You may find you need to do the carbs as well but start with one thing and take it from there

You just need to connect the red with the red, orange with the orange, gray with gray and brown with brown b6 switch to main harness (standard GS plug) blank off the other two wires but not together
Did this the other way round years ago, bandit 600 harness to GS switch, worked just fine.
Put a build thread up in the members projects section with lots of pics, as we like pics

Pilot jets, the 37.5 are for the 750 engine, put your pilot screws to 3 1/2 turns out and see how that goes
