E Heads..

I have a set of E heads sitting in my basement how do I find out if they are big valves? Is there a number on the cylinder head or where/how do I measure the valves? Thanks for any input, Steve.

Intake valve is 2.07"
The gap between the valves is about the width of a thumbnail. If it is a wide gap, they are small valve.

You can use a ruler if you have to. Look for them to be about 2 1/16.

Yes, as used on all non-W 442s as well as Toros for the 1970 model year.
