whatever the chevy valve is. i have no idea. i didnt memorize them.

here is a link to the valves purchased. i asked before i ever bought them and the the machine shop guy said all kind of people do chevy valves into ford heads and it works just fine. just sometimes there are small adjustments that need to be made.

ok i emailed the dude over at the machine shop and here is what he said.

Quote:
The rocker stud bosses need to be machined down so go rocker can go lower and should fix this problem! bring the heads back in and i will do so ASAP thanks Jim ps. nice pics
so yea i feel much better now. when i talked to him on the phone he said something about the harland sharps positioning for the pushrod hole or something is slightly different than most rockers like "ford" rockers or something and can slightly thow off calculations. but at least i know they are cut long and we can mill down the bosses no problem.
