Default itr cams in a b16a sir2 question

okay, i have a jdm b16a sir2 and im planning on putting jdm 98 spec itr cams and cam gears into my b16a. i also will be putting usdm 2000 spec itr retainers and springs in the b16a as well. my question is, is it okay to use my b16a valves with this setup. also how high would i be able to rev up to.
note: my short block is completely stock and the head is stock except what im planning on doing and im running on a stock p30. i also will be using a vafc to help tune. thanks in advance

also, is it SAFE to use my oem b16a valves with the itr cams and valvetrain.
another question is are jdm 98 spec itr cams more aggressive then usdm 2000 itr cams. i know that 2000 usdm cams give more power than the older year cams, but how are they compared to the jdm cams?

Ive heard USDM 01 ITR cams are the most aggressive and best.

98-00 are the same. 01 are more aggressive.

Yes you can use the stock valves no problem.

great news than...
i read up that you could rev up to 8,600 mark with this setup (itr cams, gears, retainers, springs, with b16a valves)
is that true or is the rev line lower/higher?

well the stock ITR valve springs are good up to 9k, but the cams stop making power after 8500, so there is no reason to rev past that.
