dude.. please stop with the bullshit. these heads have had 2.08's in them for the past 3 years. and have been run. and put out 447rwhp and 441rwtq only revving to 5700rpm. so please.. please stfu about it. the heads were done by LE. i am sure he knows what he is doing. how about we stay on the topic.

On heads with bigger valves you will find that the intakes are moved toward the center of the chamber and the exhaust valve is moved even further over to give the intake room in between them

then there is the issue of your piston's notches aren't big enough for 2.080 valve and if they were they probably aren't in the right location
Have any reply to this?
