If you guys know where i could get anything alittle cheaper that would be great too!! Everything is pretty much in order of what i will be getting first.

i think it was on zzp they say 7200 if i do any work on the valve springs i would only get the single spring kit for a straight swap and some better camsI have read somewhere that the springs were good for 7200 rpm, but i thought it would be nice to get some with more seat and open pressure just incase
I am still unsure if i should fork out money for some new valves or just use the stock ones, i want this engine to be pretty bullet proof to a minimum of 7000 RPM
when its done, I am very sure the stock valves (60,000 odd Kms on the clock) can handle it, but would it be worth the extra coin just for piece of mind? or should
i just but new standard ones? instead of the supertech ones?
and about the chain tensioner, whats the difference between the z20net and the z22se? i am assuming the z20net is alot better?
