I would say yes. Having previously run them on my big block GM marine engines I bought a set of Jesels on eBay while collecting parts for my FE build. They wound up being for the Edelbrock heads and i went with Ford MR heads so I sold them and went with Erson, with which I am very happy. But like the ones for my boat, the Jesels were incredible in terms of workmanship. Both of my marine engines were run haaaaard at 6500 rpms in the ocean and I never had one single valvetrain issue in 300 unforgiving hours. But you're right, they are $2k.
