You can't go wrong with OEM parts for that application.

If it's an L98 I would go with the fel pro valve seals. I believe that they are the vitrion? type ( I'm such a bad speller ).

We run Teflon seals on the race engines and don't have any problems. Not the same app but they should work well on the street.
