Just wondering...

Just an update on these.. I've been researching them and they seem to be legit and pretty reasonably priced as well. Going to look into them a bit further and then decide if I'm going to use them or not. I am not really sure I like that they are Nitride coated in just the "head" and not the entire valve (from what I've read on (Eng-Tips Forums) We'll see. I'll know more in about a week

I forgot about this thread actually. What did you want to know? I have them in the motor and they're working good. No complaints thus far. The track is still closed so no numbers with them. They all checked out ok with my machine shop guy. I sent them off to be cryo treated before the where installed. Not saying that made them better, just putting it out there.

You got an update on how well they work? i was thinking of ordering a set. The pictures look like the whole thing is coated now.
