Ford called the Cleveland heads 2V for the 2 barrel carb engine and 4V for the 4 barrel high performance version of the engine.

No one has ever said the 4V intake ports are too small. In fact, many claim they are too big.

CHI makes a set of head they call 3V, which I assume they are trying to tell you they are about half way between the 2V and 4V intake port sizes. They must know what they are doing because they are about as good a head as you can get at a reasonable price.

They are indeed designed to be a Cleveland head, but can be bolted on a Windsor thus Clevor is appropriate.
