Default Need new valves

I just found out from my machinist that all the valves in my car are bad. (All intake and all exhaust) does anyone have a good recommendation for new valves? the dealership wants 500 dollars for a complete set.

Thanks

I would say get some ss SI valves, they are strong and ran by most in the nhra hot rod class so obviously they must work, you get the whole swirl effect and are not as expensive as ferrea.

Either brand you choose definately a stainless steel valve by a reputable company is needed. I would ask your builder to see what he recommends but any of the above are a great choice.
