how much do they want?

motor 11-08-2017 09:54 PM

they are around 425-450 apiece bare ..Don't remember exactly.but I would like to be able to buy all the stuff from one place if possible even though they will be disassembled and checked...Do you have a line on where to buy

mike tkach 11-08-2017 09:59 PM

i bought some on ebay,aa midwest in vegas.they are the ones who i believe import them in from australia,i paid around 440.each with free shipping.

i had the machine shop check guide clearance with valves i supplied and they were spot on.i will add that i was very pleased at how they performed and will use them again on the lower dollar builds.

I was thinking that if I bought it all from one shop I might just pay one markup instead of each individual part marked up

just looked at ebay 434 apiece..now if only they would toss in a few Inconel valves at a good price.I was thinking maybe Odessa had the purchasing power to make a decent deal..Or are they hype

mike tkach 11-08-2017 10:33 PM

i bought my valves,springs retainers and keepers from summit.what cam are you planning on running?

Buy the exhaust valves yourself. Not in an assembled head from a volume builder. There are places to worry about cost. 400 for exhaust valves. Spend 100 to 250, you could be spending 5k for new block and heads. Plus a tow, plus half a summer in the crapper.

thank you Ateco ...I will call later today
