Default Looking for some head port specs.

Pretty simple question for you guys

What is the port length, height, and width of a stock ls1 head?

Does anyone have a picture of the ports?

I just want to "take a look."

Thanks for any help!

A bump...

What size are the valve stems? 8mm?

What are the port dimensions?

Length, Width, Height...

Any good write-ups on the innovations of the ls1 engine?

I found this:

+1 I've seen him post up all sorts of dimensional specs when the L92 heads came out. I'm sure he knows the rest of them too.
