Default mismatched valves on heads

just opened my box with used TEA 1.5 5.3l heads last night and noticed they have non matching intake valves on them. will this give me any sort of problems due to weight differences or will i be good to just leave them in? thanks guys.

nope, they are all the same size just different brands. all of the valves are 2.02". there are 2 intake valves on one head that look like they could be ferrea or manley. the rest of them are not shiny and are a little more rounded but still look like quality pieces. thanks
