Not exactly what I was implying.

He isn't looking for massive amounts of power.

Heck, swapping to an MTX will boost the fun factor in itself.

But in all, the oversize valves would be more effective in a boosted engine. They won't really provide much bang for the buck on an N/A engine. But,if you are replacing bad valves with Mopar replacements, then the oversize ones are very comparable in cost.

One thing about aftermarket replacements: The cheaper priced ones are single lock grooved. 99% of 2gn's are triple locks. You will need to replace the keepers and retainers to use single lock valves. Now they are not so cheap.
