I do know that the car powerglide 235 used a larger valve than other 235's, but not sure what years they did. Patrick did sell them at one time, Tom Langdon also has some for sale. I din't know about them till after I did my head three years ago, wish I had put them in.

Instead think about some Chevy v8 1.5 raceflow exhaust valves and have the machinest install hardened seats. Money better spent.

I already got all new or NOS parts, except for the intake valves. I prefer new ones and was just curious. I believe Patrick's are oversized. They are supplying me with the M4F cam and lifters and the no-lead exhaust valves and seats.
I only want to have this done once and be good for another decade or hopefully longer...with good maintenance. Better to do everything right while its all apart.
Still looking for the right shop in LA area. Although a friend of mine recommends a guy in the valley, who used to specialize on rebuilding straight sixes for racing and street. Just always prefer a decent choice. - Thanks for any help. | | |
