Which stainless steel heater valves?

I am at the point in my build where I’m installing all the lines and hoses to my engine. Going to get crowded fast.

I am on the fence as to leaving the stock ones in place or dropping $250 for a problem I may or may not Have.

My I ask if you are installing to fix an issue?

Anybody else?
If I do it I should do it before it’s gets to be a real pain.
Thanks.
 
recommended by the guy helping me with the build, I believe he said the Al ones leak, and it adds more heat to the tunnel.
 
In the unlikely event of an engine fire I sure as heck wouldn't want an aluminum one in there. I put a stainless one in my -7A.
 
From everyone I have chatted with this is a highly recommended upgrade. Keeps the heat out of the tunnel and cockpit.
