What valves to buy? Help

Im looking for a set of valves for my car and Im not to sure what to go with. I just bought the GSC S1 cams, i have the Supertech Dual valve springs with the Titanium retainers, and ARP head bolts. But Im not to sure on the valves. Open for any advise and info. And Im also wondering if I should stick with the OEM head gasket?

Hi!

I use Supertech and they are great valves, do not break if somthing goes wrong ( did not for me anyway )..

Cosworth head gasket is one of the best.

if you want to go all out, find some Inconel Exhaust Valves.

Yeah I figured the OEM head gasket would be just fine, and it never hurts to have the APR head studs.
