I wish I was the one bidding on those, I just bought and installed nitrided coated valves last week, but I paid $275 for them! They look good to me, I'd get 'em.

One thing to mention though, they don't have the narrowed valve stem right near the base of the valve, which gives a little better flow. But still a good deal.

awsome... Im actually the winning bidder so far (not that it matters)

I emailed the guy and hes selling me a set of 16 valves, 16 revised lifters, and a SS oil feedline. for $210.00 shipped... eveything is brand new.

also .... how would coated valves compete with a swirl polished valve .... like whats better ect.

They say the coated valves have less friction in the guides and can withstand more heat. I like that better, that's why I forked out the cash for a set.
