Finally got stroked

[K'tara]

I finally have my stroker block in and now I get to work on the head and getting all the other little shit that's suppose to go on the block. $2700 for the block and about another grand or two for all the other stuff that's up and coming.

Question, what angle vavle job should I get and with what kinds of Valves for the 3sgte?

Stick with 3 angle, 5 angle is more of a myth than anything else from what I remember. Stainless valves, no need to go oversized as there isn't much room on that head. Spend the money on nice springs/retainers and a good headgasket.

ok, who would be the best place to get the retainers and vavles from? Just trying to get some options and opinions.

Check out comp cams, and other camshaft manufacturers many cam companies have them.

Well, I got the block in the garage and finally get to start working on my car again. Took 4 months to get the thing, but well worth the wait.

I just started a page in cardomain and havent learned everything yet so dont make fun of me.

For the springs and retainers and valves, I believe Ferrea would produce them.
Crower can do 5sfe camshafts, but it's a custom order. I'm going to get some done soon (so I plan)

You can get a multi-angle valve job done as well, which is what I had done when adding the 2mm oversized valves.

There's room to add fairly large valves in at least the 5S, I'm not certain about the 3S.

Make sure you go with the ARP head studs when you reassemble.

Otherwise, good luck!

ARP head studs is like modifying 101, lol. But I think I'll stick with 3 angle.
