Custom 1.9 Intake valve for the 3.8L heads now

[slacker69]

I was talking with Tom at SSM and they now have a 1.9 custom intake valve for us. I am about to get some heads ported from him for my new cam. I was thinking about getting them cause they are 200 extra. Is it worth it. I am checking to see if there custom exshuast valve for sale as well. But i thought i would let yall know.

I like the use of bigger valves since that allow more flow w/o having to increase lift or duration, making the heads much more efficient.

Well with my new cam 210/220 .533/.544 113lsa i figured if i am gonna spend the money to get heads ported and polished i may as well go all out right.

yup, but all out would be larger exhaust valves too. zzperformance sells P&P'd heads w/ larger inatke and exhaust valves for 3000 or 4000 for a set. this includes a lot of stuff done to them like stronger springs, titanium retainers, unshrouding the valves in the combustion chanmer, match-porting the lower intake to the heads, match porting the headers to the heads, ect.
