Alright, so I've searched through the entire JZ section here on SM, and have found that most all the valvetrain parts are interchangeable between 1j and 2j. The issue I am having is sourcing oversized valves for my 1j. For 2j, they're all over the place. But the 1j? Seems non-existent. Not even JUN seems to make them, which kinda surprises me.

I've been told that if the valve stem sizes on the 1j/2j are the same length and diameter, that the seats can be cut to fit, but I kinda have my doubts about an intake valve that is 2.6mm bigger fitting without serious issues...

I don't have a problem going with a custom sized valve, but if anybody knows of a place I can get +1mm valves for the 1j, PLEASE let me know.

Thanks!

Nevermind, I've decided cams would be money better spent, seeing as how I'm not exactly shooting for the moon here. Just an overactive sense of efficiency at work here :p
