You might want to correct your ad as Ga heads are for 1972. G heads are for 71. Large valve Ga heads were only offered in the W30 I believe, making them kind of rare. Someone else maybe able to confirm.

you may want to put a number on the valve size too. One man's "large valve" is another man's "std issue valve" at 2.00" - so I have found in dealing with others.

To be accurate, Ga heads with 2.07" valves are exceedingly rare.
With 2.00" valves, not so much.

I am sure these are standard 2.00" valves. Thanks for the clarification!

My U-code 72 Cutlass has 2.07 Ga's. I don't know but have wondered how that happened. One owner, older lady car.

Doesn't get much better than that unless a 442 or 30. Sweet.

Did any of the Ga heads have 1.687 exhaust valves in place of the usual 1.625?

I have a set of Ga heads in good condition. Small valves, however can be machined for larger valves as they need to be reconditioned. $200.00 + actual shipping to your zip code.
