I use a ferrea 1.90 intake valve. They can be ordered in that size. For SBC.

I have used PES lumps in my own engine. They fit like dog****. Either the HI-FLOW brand or Larry's are far superior in fit and finish. Having installed all 3 brands, I can say this.
I will get a few pics of the cast iron in the intake chamber wall. Tom
