the standard valve replacements and get better rods
I'd like to quit thinking of the present as some minor insignificant preamble to something else~~~~~

anyone else have an opinion? sounds right to me rusty, i was thinking the only thing that would change with the stainless valves,other than the off chance that it would remain cleaner...
