Im going to run 302s. I have found a set for next to nothing. Ill have a little more money in them but I will know exactly what Ive got. The 273s were done by the owner. He did not put new guides in them. He ported and bowled them himself. Theres the intake debate and the hardend seats debate. Im going safe and will run 302s.

Thanks all for your comments.

just to throw fuel to the fire, on OEM hardened seat heads. the seats are induction hardened, and the hardening is not very deep. do a couple of valve jobs, or put larger valves in and you're out of the hardened seat area anyway...

The 920's are probably a good idea if you could find a set.

Happy birthday Dave!
