i havent been able to find any myself and i dont think there is a company that makes em for a ca18, unless you go custom.

There's probably nothing made specifically for the ca18det. You would need to take one of your stock valves, measure critical dimensions, and look for something in the ballpark from an american manufacturer.

At that point you would need to remove your old valve seats/guides, install larger bits. Solid lifters/dual coil springs are a must at that point.

Its all custom work, very time consuming, and its going to be hard to find someone to do it for you.

400+everyday whp on stock valves, 300+everyday whp on stock valves, multuiple cams, ported and non-ported heads, big injectors, high flow pumps, blah, blah. I just never had an issue with a stock valve burning up, let alone ever breaking a timing belt.
