With serious headwork, you'll want higher compression and a stronger bottom end to allow for higher revs.

Sounds to me like you want some mild cams.

the only reason to buy after market valves is to go oversized, even going oversized provides little hp increase unless you are flowing ALOT of air. waste of money on a stock motor.

Sounds like you need to do some research before you do anything.
