Titanium Valves Allowed in S/S?

A few years ago I spoke to Mr. Lang about allowing head studs in Stock Eliminator, he responded by saying that they would increase the cost of building a racecar. The difference between head bolts and head studs is about $40

I responded that by using head studs, the frequent replacement of blocks due to pulled threads from stripped head bolt holes could be reduced.

My request fell on deaf ears.....but in NHRA's world it would make sense to allow Ti valves in Super Stock

Once it became optional, it would become mandatory due to a performance increase

Go figure
