The best set of valves for PI heads are from Mod Max. If you goto MODMAX.com they got them. They are a little more money, but well worth it.

Yea, I don't know what state you live in. But there is a s**t load of links on the Mod Max website, to dealers. I'm sure there is one that is close to you.</P>

you need something like a sereve duty valve manley makes for increase flow as the stem is cut back and putting a 5 angle valve job and port match will help...I'm not sure what size valves you have but would go 1 size bigger if possible
