I have a 2.200" intake valve and a 1.625 exhaust valve in my AFR 210's.
I believe that running a 4.030" bore is hurting me....I would much rather have a 4.125" bore(the extra cubes would be nice also)...or bigger to get the most of the heads.
So yes, you can run a 2.100" valve...

I would think for that size motor a 215cc head would be the smallest you could use, but I guess that depends more on how high you want to spin it. If you were planning on using an "out of the box" head with no work then you should probably get the CNC'd 227cc.
Then again, I would bet the CNC'd head was designed for a bigger bore than you have, so it might be a better idea to get the 215cc or 230cc and have someone work them over for you with your bore size in mind.
Just my $.02

Do you have any info on the LT1 head or a link to them? I looked on dart's site and i couldn't find anything reguarding Lt1 head. I've read alot of people talking about them but thats about it.

Found The Dart LT1 head on jegs website.. It doesnt looks as if there will be enough in these heads to support the 396. http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...32783_-1_10187
Also found the brodix LT1 head as well. Same goes with these. http://www.mbeperformance.com/brodix...ead-p-206.html
What do you guys think?
Bret shoot me that e-mail still im curious to which dart heads you would recommend and also the price to convert a Single plane for me.
