ECZ-C heads

I have a pair of ECZ-C heads that I plan on using for the 292 Y that I'm building. According to ford-y-block.com, these are 1956 heads, with 1.78" intake valves.

Now, a couple of questions:

First .. these are big-port heads, right? I recently bought a '57 four-barrel intake on eBay and I want to make sure it will match up. Second, can the intake valves be changed to the larger 1.92" size?

Sounds good there is another kid bout my age who has the guts to build a Yblock, rather then do the cheap swap.

I looked at several heads, and I do have a set of the larger valve type head that have a casting number ECZ-G. The "G" head was made in 1957.

Good lookin 1960 though!!!!
