Valve Manufacturer

Has anyone used valves made by Schoettle? Are they equivalent in quality to TRW?

Never heard of Schoettle, but some Porsche engine builders and machine shops now use Intervalves from Switzerland rather than TRW, as their (TRW's) quality control has apparently dipped over the past few years. As an added benefit, Intervalves are also cheaper. Hope that helps.

Thanks Ralph. I read about Intervalves in a thread a search turned up. The reason I ask about Schettle is that I can get valves through IMC (distributor) and they offer TRW and Schoettle (cheaper) so I was hoping to get some positive feedback about those.
