Default Full aftermarket valvetrain advantages over stock.

Hey guys, after my little accident, I've concluded that all that compression is being lost through my valves. So I will be replacing it soon. But I need to know what kind of advantages I will have w/ an aftermarket ss setup vs. a stock replacement. I am not looking for a valvetrain that will take me into the 9000+ rpm range, but instead something that will hold up against my nitrous usage. The stainless steel will definately hold up against the added cylinder heat, but can't my stockers withstand the same? My goal is to basically save as much money as I can, so I'm basically just leaning towards stock valves(I think they're cheaper??) and maybe getting them coated w/ a higher heat resistant coating. What do you guys think??? I just need something that will work w/ nitrous and is cheap.
