Why do you "need" to order valves?

Do you have any good valves left? I need a good 1.55" exhaust valve.

Also, I think most the the 2.00" and 1.55" LS valves were the same, except that some of the LS6 heads had longer valves. If you're 243s were NOT from an LS6 (truck/SUV engine, LS2, etc) then you will probably need the standard-length valves.
