Back in 2005 Ohio State (ahem, The Ohio State) had Ti valves in their F4i. I'm looking for some contact info for anyone that was involved with that.

Also if anyone knows the springrate of the valve springs on the F4i, please let me know.

I'm going to question why you want them. If its for any reason other then significantly raising your redline...i wouldn't bother.

If this is for a true racing application, i'd talk to xyldyne valves, sold through CV products and Delwest. Delwest's biggest customer is ferrari. Both supply to nascar teams. Neither will be cheap.

They're for a land speed motorcycle I'm building.

I actually work for DelWest. I was looking through our old drawings and found F4i valve drawings with Ohio State as the customer. I just wanted to ask some questions about their experiences before I started an order for them.
