the stock valves are pretty good valves, never heard of stock ones breaking, the 06+ are pretty crappy Ti valves though and they wear fast but thats mostly because of the seats. if your gonna buy valves and you want SS get ferrea's they are about the same price maybe even cheaper then stock. If you want Ti, CV4 makes the best but they are 170 a piece, sparks and baldwin sell some that are 170 for 2 and they are good valves, if you go Ti, put some copper CV4 seats in it and you should do atleast exhaust guides because the ex. side wears really fast becuase of the rocker arm. if you go Ti, get some CV4 Ti springs so the pressure is right for them
