Titanium vs Stainless Steel Valves Other than duribility, what are some reasons why you would want to go with titanium valves verses stainless steel? The cost difference between $8( SS ) and $92( titanium ) is pretty steep.

Re: Titanium vs Stainless Steel Valves If I had the cash I would do it but I dont.They are a hell of a lot lighter though and if your spinning your motor high then that is the way to go.Its a lot less strain on your valve train.
