E7 head questions
I'm trying to find info for the 460EFI heads. Can't seem to find it anywhere.
Are the valve lenths the same as the old 460?
I'm trying to put in bigger ones, and I can't find that little bit of info out.
Will 2.19/170 fit?
What about pushrods?
And guide plates?
Spring height?
What about the head gasket?
I have a "how to rebuild you 460" book, It doesn't even mention the EFI model. Any good books out there? Thanks alot.

E7 head questions
There's very little published data on E3 and E7 heads for two primary reasons:
Any degree of change requires burning a new chip for the EFI operating system.
Those heads do not interchange with carburated heads and that means no aftermarket support. The differences are intake manifold angle and raised exhaust ports.
That aside, people have had good results with them because they do have a raised exhaust port.
