Yeah, they're the 2.0 3-studders. My old valves were corroded too bad to reuse, and the original sodium exhausts appeared fine once wire brushed, however they had hairline cracks and had to be junked. I would guess that stainless replacements wouldn't corrode as easily, and wouldn't wear as easily as the stock ones (except for stock exhaust valves, they're stainless as well, I believe). Someone in the know, please stand up on this?
My intakes were cleaned up, but not match ported. Thanks for the idea! I'll see how close they are tonite after work - there's still time to do it though.
Are there different types of "3 angle" valve jobs? The machinist (a full time cylinder head builder and racer, with aircooled experience) told me he cut different angles in them for better initial flow, or some baloney like that. He said these heads should crank - I don't care, as long as they stay together!
