Sorry Cattle....had to man
On the 243s, I'd just get any 243/799; pick up the Katech 2.1" hollow intakes and a 1.57 stainless exhaust, then have a decent shop turn them down to a 2.03"/2.04" whatever fits on the seats and get a quality VJ.

Exactly what I was thinking earlier today myself...They have a good price on this set of heads, so I'm pretty sure I'm gonna' take them whatever they have for valves if there not totally shot.
