Where can I get 2" / 1.56" valves?

I've done a search reading the advantages...rather, disadvantages of running a 2.02/1.6" valve, and I'd just rather go with the largest that's "meant to be" there, which is the 2" / 1.56" valve. Where can I get a set of these?

I've searched plenty. If I get the 2.02/1.6 valves, it requires new valve seats installed, and will seat more toward the back of the valve where it's not supposed to be. I read both sides of the argument, and it's not worth it to me the extra machine work to get .002 more intake and .004 more exhaust.

Correct me if I'm wrong?

No offense.

BTW, I haven't seen them in the Scummit catalog...

Manley makes them, along with others. Jegs has them. Most aftermarket valves sizes for the SBC start at 1.600" and 2.020" though. Why not just get OEM valves if the size doesn't matter to you?

The Manley part #'s are
11500
11501
$11 each

Ferrea part #'s are
6161
6165
$16 each

Jeggs or summitt will be able to get Manleys, not sure about the Ferrea's

I believe Combination Motorsports has some "privete label" ones as well. I am not sure of their cost.
