Default stupid question. but you guys are the masters.

as you all know, im not a mechanic master in any respects so im asking this stupid question. i did break my timing belt and because of it ALL of the valves got fucked and so i got new ones and its alright now. but they guy at the machine shop said that i had a hole in one before they got bent so...do you think that now that the engine has all new valves...would it run better..and would i notice any change for the better? thanks for listening to this very stupid question.

What motor? For the price...just motor swap it. OR find a old stock motor for like 50 bucks and put that in.

yes to your question since it had an obvious , exhaust or intake leak (from the burnt valve) it should run better. more power etc.

my bro snapped his belt on his d16a6 and bent 12 valves...now... given that the valves are bent the some of the guides must be cracked as well....as for my brother's EF...........its time for a SWAP
