Z32 headwork

My friend has a Z32 and he is looking for a place to get stronger valves, retainers, and springs. Does anyone know a company that manufactures these?

Valvetrain mods are not needed unless you are going for more than 530 whp. Its also very important to match the componets with the manufacture of the cam you intend to run.

I dunno man, aggressive cams have been known to do wonders. I know of JUN so I'd probably trust them.

Well I am just saying unless you want to make more than 530 WHP, you don't need cams or any other sort of valetrain mod. On the Z, the best money spent is trying to get the exhaust manifolds to flow more.

Ahh, understood. Well, I suppose a port and polish may be in order then?

You don't even need to port your head, its all in the ehxuast manifold. Greg Dupree sells inconel manifolds that don't crack and flow 100% better than stock. Combined with some decent turbos and a JWT ECU you can get well over 500 whp. No sence buy what you don't need.

Thats not even needed. People have made over 620 whp on a bone stock factory long block.
