Default need suggestions on h22 valvetrain upgrade

Im currently running a h23vtec built bottom, with ported h22 head with 3 angle valve job. But timing belt broke and valves are bent. Might as well upgrade while its off so what do yall suggest? The block is sleeved with 89mm JE 11.5:1 & crower rods. Its a nitrous motor so how should i do it (cams springs valves retainers guides etc...)what brands?

EW... its NITROUS or N02, not NAWWWWWWZZZ. lol... sorry

My timing belt just snapped too... at 60k miles. Its the fault of that crap-*** Hydrolic Auto Tensioner!!!

Anyone else have "piston slap" around 3k rpm? Feels like hesitation.

All these little H22 problems lead me to belive this engine should have been recalled. And dont say its from how I drive... I baby the Lude, and beat the **** out of my GSR... and the GSR has 133,000 with 0 problems.

For the valves, stick to OEM Honda valves... as you said in your post, the valves BENT... aftermarket ones have a higher probability of breaking rather than just bending

As far as valvetrain goes, I'll probably go with S2 stage2 cams, and some retainers, as well as valve guides. I'll stay with OEM Valves, and I don't know about Valve guides, should I stay with the same brand guides as retainers and springs? As far as installation goes, any of you first timers had much trouble when replacing valvetrain components, what is basic procedure for replacement? Is head removal necessary? I'll get a helms before I try anything anyways
