Back story: I own an 87 Dodge Daytona Shelby z with a 2.2 turbo engine. Was my first car, I love my car. It's got a good bit of work done to it (won't go into details unless someone asks). About 3 years ago it started a fit of over heating while driving spiritedly, I was broke/frustrated after doing a bunch of stuff to try to fix the issue. So the car got parked for about a year. Then, decided to work on it as money got better, fixed it, drove for a few days then blew the turbo up. Sat for about another 2 years and here we are now. Current: I have a brand new bigger turbo for my car, along with a head that I did a lot of work to, but that head needs oversized valves (can run stock, but don't want to). Everybody I got ahold of says the valves I want are no longer available, except for one place that may try to do a group buy for them. I'm left with the option of waiting for a group buy, or watching the forums for someone selling a set. Dilemma: do I wait to find valves? Or do I just bolt everything up to my other head (it is ported and polished) and run it that way until I find valves then swap heads? It doesn't cost much or take long to swap heads btw. Like 40 bucks and 3hrs tops What say you guys.
