What valves?
Ok, so I bought some LS6/LS2 heads, and failed to ask what valves were in them. I should've known for the price that they're the solid valves. What's a good lightweight valve to buy and stick in these? Preferably more reasonably priced than not.

You need to get a valve job for the new valves.
But since you're unning such heavy duals, I wouldn't bother. Just stick with the valves you have.
On a G5X3 there is absolutely no benefit in going that high in rpm, unless you just like to hear the motor scream

Ya think? I ask because my little 224 was just peaking at 6600. So I figured a bigger cam like a G5X3 would move way up.
So what's the deal? They have to make the head where the valve sits the same shape as the new valve? And a 2.00" Manley valve won't fit where a 2.00" GM valve was? I appreciate the education, guys. I know nothing about this, obviously.
Is there a beehive spring that would handle a G5X3, so that I could use lighter valves too? I hear a light valvetrain is great for power and revs.
