Hey guys, I finally knocked some sense into my head and decided to forget the JDM motor $wap and build a ka24deT. Anyway I just picked up a head off of ebay and am looking for some options on where to buy some better than stock internals. Specifically, I'm looking for some high tension valve springs, high end (titanium??!!)valve guides & retainers, (upgrade??) lifters, etc...

Also, ka's dont use sodium cooled valves as I understand it, would these be a good idea? At least on the exhaust side...

I know I have to worry more about the bottom end when it comes to boost, but I got the head so cheap($70 :ylsuper ), I'd like to see what I can do with it. I don't want this motor to blow up anytime soon (who would?)

and yah, first things first, Im goin to strip it, get it hot-tanked to check for cracks, do a resurface, and valve/seat grind (if the valves are straight...)
