the valves that were already in there are stainless, i told the machine shop the car has less then 1000 miles on the build,so he checked the valves told me they were in perfect condition and we reused them.i'm going to check everything upon reassembly make sure it all lines up.

thanks man! besides needing a header gasket and small finishing touches here and there, the previous owner took very good care of this car.
