No, Stainless steel valves are worse. They're soft and although they're one piece, as opposed to welded, they stretch and are more expensive. I threw away a set of them due to compression loss after just a few hours of use. The best exhaust valves to use are the stock TRW brand valves. They are two piece and have hardened stems.
