In my uncles old shop, we'd regularly put 1.94's in them, i think we did some 2.02's cant rememebr for certain though, been a while...lol (4 months)....but i was stuck workin on chevy heads most of the time [:'(]

But i could imagine you could fit them in there. They are 58cc chambers if i remember right. Those should fit fine in a 58cc chamber.

On those junk heads, i would grind through in all kinda of different places in the ports and bowls to see how much meat is there so you wont hit water on your good heads.
