Damaged my heads Hi i have a set of dart 225 heads and i have damaged the valves when my timing chain broke so now i need new valves intake is 2.055 exhaust is 1.6 so what are my options? i was looking at the patriots and they were $15 so that will cost me around $500 just for valves! any help guys??
Doesn't manley or ferrea make a set? I know you can get the manleys (which are nice pieces) for around $100 for exhausts, that's where I got my 1.575 exhaust valves. Paid more for the intakes (2.02's). Not sure, might want to look into it, that or rev I guess.
Youve got tons of options. The majority of them shouldnt cost more than 200 for the set of 16. Figure another couple hundred bucks for a valve job and to have them lapped in. Might think about replacing the bronze or steel valve guides too.

SDPC sells ferra 6000 valves, $12.25 for 2.055", $11.75 for 1.6". Thats $192 for the set. Then there's Manley valves for 10.75 each in both 2.055" and 1.6". That comes out to $172 for the set.
