What material is this exhaust valve made from?

This COMP Cams exhaust valve is constructed from stainless steel. This material is chosen for its strength and resistance to corrosion and high temperatures encountered during engine operation.

What is the benefit of the 1.600-inch head diameter?

The 1.600-inch head diameter is larger than the stock size on many Small Block Chevy engines. This larger surface area helps to increase the volume of air and fuel mixture that can enter the cylinder, potentially improving engine performance.

Does this valve come individually or as a set?
