Those are common SBC 11/32 stem sized valves. Gona be a bit pricey to change your heads from 1.94 to 2.02. Doubt you will see the full benefit of changing it.
Stock LT1s in F bodies had either 116 LSA or 117. LT4's had 115 LSA.
Duration varied from 200 to 210.

so u think it wont make a differnece by changing the valves?
even with a aftermarket cam
alrigh my cam has LSA 112 and duration .050 of 212int218exh
with a gross valve lift of .488int .495exh
do u think this cam is even worth putting in?

What are your goals? It's hard for anyone to suggest anything without knowing how fast you want to go. With a cam that small, you'd be able to run it on stock heads.
I'm trying to build a street drag combo with decent fuel economy the cam I already have is a lil small for what I want it was in a 305 I used to have and had 2k miles on it n I'm. On a slight buget considering I'm in high school still n I'm 17 but I'm looking for a mild cam in it but sumthin tht give me some upper rpms and sum good power
Any suggestion on cams?

Too large a valve without the corresponding correctly done head bowl work will not gain you any flow. The valve will be shrouded to the extent it may flow worse than a 2.00" valve. I have 500HP through a 2.00" intake valve. Bigger is not always better.
alright so your saying im jumping the gun a little on the valves sense i wont have a large enough cam
also portin and polishing ive heard these are tricky heads to port and polich but i dont know why they would be much differnt from other sbc heads and ya also was going to do that the heads and manifold just gasket match them ?
