Default Quality Valves?

It's been quite a while since i've posted up on here since all of my FI drama... ::sigh:: ... but regardless i'm in need of some more knowledge.

Well my motor lost compression again and come to find out it might be due to some bent valves... If this is the case i'm going to be in the market for some high quality valves. Now i know of Skunk2 but i've heard some awful horror stories about them and can't afford another $3000 mistake.

Where would i need to set my sights to find the best quality valves for the money? The more inexpensive the better but i'm a firm believer in quality over quantity.

Can anyone help me out?

I looked on the site but i didn't see any valves that they made specifically for my motor. I saw there was a form to fill out to order custom valves but would any shop capablilities to order custom made valves??
