I did a forum search because I have a faint memory of a discussion about using Ford and Chevy valves in a Y block. I think the lengths are ok, but the keeper groove is a different height. Any thoughts?



The near term goal is to find some slight oversize valves for some ECZ-C heads, something like 1.84".



Longer term, it would be interesting to use parts like beehive valves and small diameter retainers to reduce valvetrain weight.
