Hoosier Hurricane (9/4/2020)
Your G heads have 1 15/16 inch intake valves.  2 inch valves are .062 bigger in diameter, which means one side of the valve will be .031 closer to the chamber wall.  I doubt you would ever know the difference in performance.

If anything, wouldn't larger exhaust valves help performance more? That's what Karol Miller did with the G heads on his '56.

Heads are ready to pick up tomorrow😁(finally). It’s been 11 weeks since old mate butchered them. Hopefully everything is as it should be and I’ll have the engine in the truck and driving by the end of the weekend. I’ll keep you guys updated.


Thanks, Dennis.

Heads look ok. The SBC 2.02 +.200 intake valves look like they worked a treat. The SBC valves were .060 too long so the shop machined .060 off the top.

They Vac tested them and assured me that the work done was correct so I just hope they are correct.










Thanks, Dennis.

LordGaga- thanks for all the help throughout this ordeal. I’m glad to finally have the heads back and hopefully not have to remove them for a long time.

Also thanks everyone who offered advice and support, it was a great learning experience although next time I’ll probably just work more OT and buy a set of Mummert heads😆😁.


Thanks, Dennis.
