Had to do a little experimenting....juggling between valves, spring pressures, etc.

Ended up with Ferrea titanium valves all the way around. Intake valve is a whopping 68g. Exhaust valve weighs 63g. This is one of the lightest valvetrain setups that I've seen...titanium valves, beehive springs with titainium retainers, etc.

Valve job will be done tomorrow, heads should be assembled tomorrow as well if no problems pop up. Then I can measure for pushrods and get things going.

Due to the dyno throttle servo and the way the Inglese intake is setup, I won't be able to dyno it with the Webers. I do, however, have a prepped Victor Jr. intake that I'll dyno with.
