    my problem is im looking into zzp or wbody both sell Si stainless valves for the gtp. showed i run stock sizes. Or showed i have the heads ported to go up one size bigger valves.

    rest of the valvetrain will be comp cam rollers, retainers, and rods.

    Get valves from intense...manleys...I did.

    If the heads are off and you have the money...get them ported and polished. Comp Cams rollers? If you have stock rockers and a stock cam you dont need stronger valve springs.

    i dont think there is a point in droping the money for the valve if its still on the stock cam and rockers. invest that money in a cam or something.

    And if your willing to pay get your heads ported and polished I have mine apart right now and the valveseats on the exhaust were hammered to crap and needed to be replaced

    Might as well cam it while its apart ;-)

    dont buy new valves unless you go bigger. if you go bigger then get manley valves. if you go bigger you might as well port the heads and get a cam.

    Found out it it’s not my valves. Got really lucky. Guy did a compression check again from other shop that knows more. said not valves have a ring that’s by passing but he said its nothing really to worry about do to how well modern rings are made will still last me 100,000+ of hard use if running good in oil changed on time.
    Found out my big problem is my 4clyender is not getting enough fuel. Might be just a cracked intake gasket and a bad injectors going! do to I got fuel on top of block.

    What are strong intake gaskets?

    Also what injectors showed I get?? I’m looking at zzp remand and flow benched 33lb ones.

    Don't you have a GTP already? Why do you need new flow matched injectors? If you need injectors I have a set of #33lb'ers sitting right here...with just 80K on them.
