u dont really need to change the valves. as long as u upgrade the valve springs and retainers u can rev a higher than your redline. ur gonna have to raise ur rev limiter though

A search should have given you heaps of results. Anyway, you don't need to change valves or retainers but change to ITR valve springs so your valves don't float. Then you can up your revlimit
