Default omni valves VS. OE valves ?

just wondering if anyone has any experiences with omni valves.
im looking to put a set of them into my b16a2 head. bc i had a valve go in it so i figure just to replace all the valves.
they are cheaper than a new set from honda.
my plans for the car are to just put it back together ( stock )


will these work ? be ideal ? am i going to run into any problems ?

I used a stock honda valve. I wire wheeled the deposits off of the existing exhaust valves and valve lapped them. Mine were all pitted on the seats and on the valve surface that contact the seats. I probably should have regrinded them. Oh, well, it's only a tired old d15b7 engine. The intake were fine though. I put it all back together and it passed emissions with 260,000miles. Good luck. I discovered that spray on gasket remover softens up the carbon deposits much better than the carb cleaner btw.

i think the omni valves would work great, also i think their dual valve spring with SNAP retainers is a great idea!
