Default valve rocker arms and other head parts?

anywhee to get them besides a dealer? Im about to buy an empty head off of an si for cheap for my ls/vtec build. I know i need valves, guides, seals, retainers, springs, and cams.

is there any advantage of say omni valves over stock? what would be the best setup for a mild street motor, already going with skunk 2 springs, retainers, and cams, but dont know about valves, and dont know if there anywhere to get the rest of the pieces besides a dealer.

thanks

well i already know of companys that make the stuff, but my question is...why some valves instead of sock?

and where can i get the rocker system other than ferrea, since theirs is 900 bucks...any idea on dealer cost?

dude go all out on the head, don't cheap out... you have an empty head.. your going to spend enough money filling it anyway might as well spend some more.. and do a full upgrade

2 birds 1 stone y0!

1 Expensive stone though...

im not gonna cheap out on valves and springs etc, but 900 for the rocker assembly is just nuts and if i did that it would prolly set my build back atleast a year.
