Do you want to? Is there anything wrong with the current valves? Do you feel like pulling the head?
[same response]
Theyre all about the same
The dealership
Stock injectors are 240cc.....why do you think you need 370?

You aren't getting more air, thus no need for bigger injectors.

I suggest your next mod be a turbo manifold.

You sure picked a small displacement motor to go n/a with.

Yes I am getting new bigger Cams and replacing the valve springs/retainers

I dont know if its worth Machining the Head and replacing it with new Valves?
My head has about 80-85k on it.

Sopose I hit 200whp should I get new injectors then?

you wont hit 200 on that set up...whenever i upgrade valve train and such i usually just pull the head and do the port and polish, might as well do new valves while you are at it, along with valve guides. Here is a link to my b16b and my mods to give you an idea...

Ah...the LSv makes a huge difference...

You dont have to replace the valves but i did to up the compression a little, i would go with a bigger injector i have 310's, 370's prpbably wouldnt hurt . As far as the port and polish, if you have the scratch then do it. Race season is among us so know head porters are starting to fill up. i went to Port Flow, dropped it off and picked it up in 1 week, when i went back to get my head he said he had 17 heads come in right after mine.

Scratch = $$$

and if you decide to pull the head and get it ported and polished you night as well go ahead and do the valves, if your not going to pull the head then no real need to do it...
