Default ferrea racing valve seals ??

i made a blunder with my valve seals and installed them in a haphazard order instaed of black spring on exhaust and white spring on intake,i only learned recently that the material used on the exhaust can withstand more heat etc...

anyaway i am now looking at getn other valve seals as i want everything to be perfect when i install the motor,,ive come across this brand called ferrea racing,their stuff is cheaper than oem but looks good on paper.

is it worth purcahising these valve seals or should i rather go oem ???

Ferrea is one of the premier aftermarket valve train manufacturers in the world. They specialize in high performance racing products.

You can bet anything they make is very good.
However, you have to be careful. They have 2 different style exhaust valve seal materials, as well as a couple different styles of valve seal, depending on application. As long as you choose the proper OEM replacement, I'd say it should be as good or better than OEM.

So their stuff has been tested and refined thru the years.
