Default New Valvetrain

Anyone know of a good place to order a new Vavletrain to run a smoother LS/Vtec setup?

Kind of a vague question.

Buy a fresh head from hmotors or just buy name brand internals. I don't know what you want.

Sorry for being so vague.

This is my current set up i have:

B18A1 BOTTOM END WITH A B16A HEAD (LS VTEC).
TYPE R TRANSMISSION WITH A ACT CLUTCH.
POLISHED TYPE R INTAKE MANIFOLD,
TYPE R THROTTLE BODY.
AEM COLD AIR INTAKE,
FULL HEADER WITH GREEDY EXHAUST WITH 2 AND HALF INCH PIPEING.
6 AL MSD IGNITION WITH MSD BLASTER.
UPGRADED ECU SHIFT AT 9000 RPMS.
FUEL REGULATOR. 330 CC FUEL INJECTORS.
B16A PISTONS.
WALBRO FUEL PUMP.
SKUNK2 CAMS AND SKUNK2 CAM GEARS

Im still running on the stock vavletrain, and i keep hearing i should buy an upgraded valvetrain to reduce my chance of blowing the motor.


Thanks for the quick reply

upgrading the valvetrain is always a good idea when you got after market cams and you plan on revving past stock redline

on a ls/vtec you got a better chance of blowing the block then the head unfortantly because the LS blocks dont have oil squirters like the vtec blocks do
