The GM engines Z06 in 2008 & 2009 Have Titanium Intake Valves, Hollow stem Exhaust, Titanium Rods and CNC ported heads since 2008.

Keep in mind when a Ti valve breaks the carnage can be twice as bad. Maybe that's why the engine builders want it?

I am for them in both super stock and stock(Jr Super Stock), It is a choice, no one is making a person us them if they do not want to.

Already allowed in many S/S classes. SS/AS, SS/BS, SS/CS. Probably others. Dyno
