stainless valves
does anyone have a hookup on stainless valves for a 12? Schnitz has Ferrea stock replacement valves for $19.80 a piece. Im leaning towards replacing my ex valves when i do a tear down. not really interested in OS valves, just interested in the added protection stainless offers.
thx

Try MadMike, he might be able to get you a deal.............. $19.80 is not too bad of a price, but if you can get it for less all the better.

maybe SI valves? they seem willing to custom make anything you want if they don't already have it..
them, or maybe APE raceparts has something?

eeeeeyahhh... lol.. wow... i mean, APE is good stuff.. i'd tink ferrea is a lil bit better? i'd still suggest SI tho.. i talked to the main guy there(can't remember his name tho) a while back for a boosted application on another bike (other than my epic 7-R build ensuing) and he quoted me an awesome price and was very helpful with everything..

I wonder where APE gets the valves???
I wasn't aware they manufactured them.
I use Kibblewhite and never had a problem

quote from their site
APE is a leading supplier of high performance and racing valves for motorcycles. APE stainless steel valves are precision manufactured from aircraft quality Inconel based stainless steel. This special material offers excellent resistance to heat and distortion. APE stainless steel valves are designed to be used in the most extreme racing applications including the use of exotic fuels, or will give many miles of trouble free street use. They present an outstanding value. In most cases you can upgrade to APE stainless steel valves for less than the cost of replacement stock valves. All oversize stainless steel valves feature hard chrome stems for extra long stem to guide life.
how much were the Kibblewhite valves Karl?
What kind of price whitehendrix? I check out their site and it would have to be a custom job.
Thx for your input too Dean, I know your stuff is making big power  300hp right?
