yup lol.i did get my titanium valves (sb2 chevy nascar 358cid valves)off to the machine shop for some mods so they will work in the v6 head.they need to be cut from 2.17" down to 1.90" and shotened with a new hardened tip and new lock groove machined in.:chacha:gonna be the only set of ti valves for the 4.0 in existance.talk about a weight difference!almost one pound of weight difference in a full set of intakes and exhaust.that's alot for fast moving parts.

I do hear that every lb saved is a wee bit of time off the 1/4 time.

weight off the valvetrain means alot more than that .it makes the engine alot more durable with lighter parts on the inside.it will allow the engine to rev alot faster and make power sooner.
