how many valve jobs did your stock head/valves go through before? If none, how many miles are on that head?

Make sure you got standard size valves too? Did you get a valve job done?

has never been cut,from the looks of it it has a different radius.also there standard size.The stock has more of a round edge as far as the flat face has more of a a taperd lip.MY question is will it be okay or do i have to get the valves cut like the stock ones.

How about you get a valve job and this will not be a concern, plus you may gain a few whp.

ferrea valves have a thicker margin than stock valves.
