If my heads are ready I will go down there with my camera.
Can I tell everyone that I have 2011 heads with good geometry and stock rockers for sale next month. Plus I will deliver them to WCCH to save buyer shipping costs.

Wow Chad, you got up there pretty quickly. A little more than a year, right?
Sorry to hear of the mishap and hope that you are back on the road soon

I'll go ahead and note it when the date rolls around. Good luck and you're making a good move.
As it stands now, there are 134 people in here whom I could find running these setups, and I made a listing.
There are two more, Dirty Howie and SS MPSTR, who will be added to that list of forum members running stainless steel valves in the upcoming days.
I will be honest with you, I never expected that there were so many.

I've been on the Ferrea Racing Components web site looking at its Super Alloy exhaust valves for LS7 but the data on Ferrea's site does not give the mass of that valve.
Since several here have used them, do you know what they weigh?

WCCH LS7 Cylinder Heads (Titanium Intake Valves, Stainless Steel Exhaust Valves, Bronze Valve Guides, Heads milled 0.004") since Dec 10, 2012.
My original heads from my 08 with 26.5K miles were sent to WCCH and the valve guides were found to be 2x the GM tolerance.

Randy@RaginRacin has used the Ferrea Superalloy F1598P in some of their builds.
We use and keep the Ferrea Exhaust valves in stock. We usually install and lap them in.
They are the Super Alloy Valves. Check them out.

Give me a call or pm me if you have any questions or need any help.
