I don't think they make the 2.00" hollow stem valves anymore, so I think you're limited to used or maybe even a set on the shelf inventory somewhere that hasn't been used. You could also turn down some LS3 valves.

If you're not worried about the hollow stems, then you can find those sizes just about anywhere.

Manley still makes hollow-stem 2.00" valves. They are godawful expensive however and only save a little weight vs the Manley SS 2.00" valve. 91g vs 103g.

an additional option for a larger intake (if replacing seats)

Lastly if your valveguides need replacing you could replace them with the
Manley 7mm guides and run the solid stem 2.02/1.6 7mm valves which are
also very light but also very expensive....check their website catalogue
