I think that Full cnc ls3 heads with bigger valves is a waist on a 370ci engine.
stock ls3 heads are more then fine. If built right it might make around 485whp

Agreed. The ls3 valves are already almost excessively large.

What are the exact specs on the head?

I just looked at specs on the heads! Thought they had bigger valves but they are 2.165/1.59 valves and 68cc heads!
