I should be getting my motor in the next couple days. Along with having the block torn down and inspected, I plan on doing a rebuild on the head with some fresh valves, some mild porting, new valve stem seals, etc. Does anyone have a source for stainless valves? I have reached the end of the internet and still haven't found anything.

These valves are up for the task of what you're trying to accomplish. Get a 3 angle valve job and a grind on the ones you already own and you should be just fine. But if you really want stainless, you need to contact Ferrea valves down here in sunny south florida.
