You could use the stock valves, valvesprings, etc, but at that power level, you'd be better off running an aftermarket valve train. What cams are you running?? If you're running something aggressive enough, you might not have a choice but to upgrade.

are valves not part of the valvetrain? just an honest question not trying to argue...

My suggestion would be a set of stainless valves. It's just smarter with the heat they will be seeing at 600whp...
