Re: Valves

Supertech sells a set of SS intake and inconel exhaust valves (standard size). They're usually on Ebay.

Re: Valves

I believe when LAN was putting together valve and spring kits along with his camshafts, he was using WRX springs and custom 92 mm valves if my memory is correct. Look through some of the old stuff of his and you can find info... Otherwise when i have time when i get back home next week I'll page through again to find the info...

The other option is to get wrx valves and convert to solid buckets... ideal for a performance engine

Re: Valves

If you are going FI, you'd better budget for the exhaust valves. They should be of superior alloy to withstand excessive heat.

Yeah, the upper portion of the engine is a kick in the nuts...

If you opt for +1mm supertech wrx valves (with inconel exhaust) I would be interested in splitting the extra set needed with you.

valves and shims is all you need... I would suggest getting valves with a slightly shorter stem, I believe you can order them, I found out after the fact... This way you have the ability to order off the shelf shims instead of having the have them custom made

Re: Valves

do I just need to get them the same length as the normal SVX ones??? or what length would I be looking for?? I'll see if I can get in contact with supertech about getting something set up. I've submitted to CP and Eagle and I'll be talking with them later this week at SEMA so I should have that end set up. I also have cometic set up so I've got most the stuff set up for the engine build.

No, WRX valves are approx 10mm longer than SVX valves.Do a little research here, you will find your answers
