I've been told like three times they have shipped. I'll believe it when they show up at my door.

Features you can see vs stock.Remember the materials springs and valves are made of is supposed to be the best and a big factor in the longer life of these parts.Time will tell.

They look great. Are they dished on the big end like stock or flat like the Ti valves?

Titanium Valves have been around for Cdales for a long time. I don't know who makes them, I'm sure if you want a set the site sponsors can dig some up for you. If not let me know and I can refer you to some places that have them.

They are dished.

Thanks, I was told that using the ti valves (without a dish) would raise the compression enough that pump gas could not be used.

Dished is good.

Doug and whoever else that helped on getting Kibblewhite to make these.

if TI valves have been around why have we been waiting for kibblewhite valves? are the ti valves not as good or are there problems with them? just wondering if i could have used those instead of waiting so long for the kibblewhite valves?
