i suppose you had youre valves lapped to match the 3 angle valve job right ?
and would it be good for a DD to go with 2.020 or 2.040 valves and i was thinking manley valves or what would u recomend?

My dad is a machinist he has his own shop and he says that the 3 angle that comes from factory is very rough. There is plenty of massaging that can be done for them to help smooth out the airflow.
While its better than not having one it is still shitty compared what some shops can do with it.

The valve seat is not as cast lol. They are a hardened ductile iron seat, aluminum wouldn't last long... Valve seats are pressed into the heads, you can't really run a much bigger than a 2.0 valve with the stock seats. Stock valve job is junk, not concentric at all. The stock valve size is perfect size for a 346 cube engine, no need for new valves. I did my 5 angle valve job, obviously my results speak for themselves, click sig link.
Have some bowl blending done with a correct 5 angle valve job and you will be very happy. There are only a few people in the US I'd trust to do a proper 5 angle valve job though.

With the cam you have listed you will run into PTV issues with a 2.04 intake valve with factory pistons unless you have valve reliefs cut.
Or you could change cams.
Also you will have to have the factory valve seats cut out and larger valve seats pressed in to use 2.04 intake valve along with a good valve job.
I chose to go with 2.055 intake valve for my factory 243 heads that I purchased used ,,my reasoning was because ethier way the heads needed a valve job before installing,plus it doesn't cost that much for the larger valve seats to be installed ,and lastly I am willing to bet $$$$$ that I will get just as much or more horsepower from the larger intake valve than getting a factory valved 243 head CNC'ed.
I have personally seen on a carbed 350 SBC a 36hp and 30trq difference from going from a 1.94 intake valve to 2.02 in a factory 882 iron head with no porting or polishing being done. and the LS1 and the LS1 fuel injection is far more superior than a carbed engine anyday.
I will be having Vengeance dyno my car soon ,,i'm just waiting on my FAST intake to arrive.If OP is interested after my car is dynoed I will share my results with him.
