If you want to rev higher than 8800 go with SI dual springs. As far as valves IMO best on the market are Ferrea. A close second is Manley. If you are going to be doing a good deal of porting best head to go with is going to be a 7bolt. To use everything to best of it's ability you will also want a 5 angle valve job. Also remember is you do indeed go with the 7bolt head you will need to drill out the head stud bolt holes to fit the 6 bolt head studs. Hope this helps.:thumb:

I went with Supertech as well for my build, and used SI valves.
