I went with the crower valves , there stainless steel instead of black nitrate, black nitrate valves have supposed advantages, retain less heat, smooter better flow. but there are no real numbers to support this.

If you got the extra cash, p&p and go oversized. youll need new intake seats too if you go oversized.
