top of the list, heads sucks, cam sucks


with that said parts list:
valves, intake and exhaust
valve seals(rubber ones are fine for single springs)
valve springs(single springs are fine but need to be match the B cam)
valve spring retainers(matched to the springs used)
valve locks(matched to the valve retainers)
gasket kit for intake and exhaust


if you are wanting to stay stock all the way-

stock stamped rockers w/ hardware

...Stock heads ported can be pretty good with the BIG Chevy valves!! ..Also, B cam also pretty good for a Carb set-up + you can use 1.72 Roller Rockers!
