The first EBay item is a complete kit; Springs, Retainers, and Valves. The rest are just valves. I've used this vendor and was VERY satisfied with the parts and price. Good Luck.

272, 292 & 312 are all sizes in Cubic Inches of Ford Y Block V-8s. Your heads will fit all three engine sizes. The valves were different sizes for different years. Maybe if you look at ford-y-block.com Cylinder Head Chart & Dimensions it may help you understand.

Sorry if I confused you.

Ford Y-Block is not a vendor it's a source of information. It will tell you about our old Ford Engines like what makes 272, 292 & 312 engines different. It will also tell you what heads have what size valves and what size combustion chambers.

Again it's only for information.

Hola Capelo,
Como estas? BJ dice que las valvulas son diferente entre los
anos. Conocen que tamano de valvula necesitas?

Hi Capelo
How are you? BJ says above that the valves are different
for the different years shown above. Do you know what size valve you need?

Hey BJ - Just trying to help a bit with communication with Capelo.

No Problem Ben,
I just sent Capelo info so he could read for himself. I found Ford-y-block.com very helpful to understand our Y Bock engines. Being only an English speaker I was worried I was confusing.

Hey BJ,
He's 7 hours ahead of us so he'll be up shortly. Let's see if we can get to the bottom of his question. What info do you need to help him decide what valves to buy? I don't see him making much headway at an English only website.

Unfortunately I don't know anything about y Blocks.

Best valves are probably Manley but the ones he listed first are from a good dealer. I've bought engine parts from them several times. I believe he knows the size valves he needs but didn't understand why they'd be listed under 272, 292 or 312s. That's why I sent him the ford-y-block.com site.

He says he wants a kit not just valves so the only one that was a kit was the first one he listed.

thank you both for the help, if it measures valves since my ECZ-G heads are from 57-59, so I do not understand is that the links in the first post I put out a few for 272, other for 292 and another for 312, with different prices and references and that's what worries me buy some that do not conform to my head, but in Page "http://www.ford-y-block.com/" no makes differences.
thanks again

gracias a los dos por la ayuda, si que se las medidas de las valvulas ya que mis cabezas son ECZ-G del 57-59, lo que no entiendo es que en los enlaces que puse en el primer post salen unas para 272, otras para 292 y otras para 312 , con diferentes precios y referencias y eso es lo que me preocupa comprar unas que no se ajusten a mis cabezas, aunque en la pagina "http://www.ford-y-block.com/"no hace diferencias.
gracias de nuevo

(BJ - I asked him if he still had any doubts or questions. If so - try us again. I think he knows what he needs now).
