Turbo make up for 2.08's on a 3.905" bore?
I have searched and fully understand that 2.08" valves are too big for a
3.905" bore due to shrouding issues. My question is; will a turbo make up for some of the shrouding issues caused by the small bore? I found an awesome deal on a pair of World Products Warhawk 15* LS1X heads. The head specs are:
025250-2, Solid/Hyd Roller, 235cc, Manley Stainless, 2.080" x 1.600", 1.437" Dual 125# Seat, .600", 72cc
I'm asking because I'm putting together a forged 347 and have all the parts already, except heads. Added to the engine will be a STS turbo system with the GT67 upgrade, FMIC, meth and all the fuel system upgrades. Obviously, no matter how good the deal is, if it doesn't work it's a waste of money! Thanks for your help!

Hmm would like to hear some more opinions.... I would think that shrouding on a larger 2.08 valve would not be greatly effected on a 347 as the air is being forced into the cylinders with forced induction?
