I think they make stelite valves for about every thing. We use them alot
for valves in propane conversions. The standard drill was to run a new
pickup 5,000 miles to break it in, make the propane conversion, run it
until needed a valve job and put in stelite valves and seats. At least on
the exaust valve.
