Valves & Springs

Can anyone that has installed aftermarket valves, spring and retainers, please tell me where they got them from??

Do they make one specific for our car, or are they form another gen civic??
What is the advange with oversized valves??
Are they a straight fit??

Thanks...

I have race valves (oversized) that were put on the head by DH-racing. They give no gains on a stock motor. Only time larger valves will come into play is with a turbo. Then it flows more air than stock.

He even has a nice DIY for them as well if you search for it.. Apparently a tedious job, too!
