I know, i was tryin g to get 2 matching sets, PM me what you would take, I would love a measurement though, I know people say standard length, but what is standard?

First off, used valves are like used lightbulbs. They may look good and they may work, but there's no way of knowing how much life is left in them. If someone had a perfectly good used set, why would they not still be in the heads?

On length, you're going to determine that by both the head and the spring package. First stop should be the head manufacturer to see what they recommend on length.

I talked to a couple engine builders, and was told they have never actually had a inconel failure, that with my HPO levels I should be fine with lower HR used, but I think I am just going to wait and buy new....

As far as length... I want to match what I have now in my Merlins so I do not need to resize pushrods or shim springs, right now everything is set up fine there, just do not have Inconel..

second off, i'm sure there are many good reasons why someone may have a perfectly good set of valves laying around... One for example would be the person decided to go with aluminum heads about 20 hrs after a rebuild, found a great deal on aluminum heads, and could not use his BRAND NEW iron head valves anymore.........
anyone have an idea of a fair price?

does anyone know what standard lenghts are, they came out of stock GM iron heads off a merc 500EFI

Sorry, they are 1.72 valves, not 1.88's now that I think of it they were too small, that's why they aren't in my heads.
