They give you more smoke/power.

I wouldn't try to cut them yourself unless you have a lathe. they all need to be the same so it will fuel evenly.




Pull urs out and if you have 181's I'll trade you even up... I have full cuts.

I'm trying to detune my truck a bit. I want 191's but I'll deal with 181's .

smoke and heat.... thats all...... but you will need the injectors too.... the valves just help getting the fuel to it..... the add some power but not enough to purchase before injectors..... but the trade would be a great route....
