Just getting some info my friend and I have been talking about it. Been thinking about the 3 liter hybrid conversion too so please some help.

Warmonger, PA-3L-SVT, Rev Pojay all have 3L.. and Demon is my proclaimed "god" on these cars, in any realm.. Ray '99 CSVT - Silver #222/276 In a constant state of blow-off euphoria.

Very little gains would be realized between the 32mm and 35mm intake valves. On top of that. If you are going through all the work of pulling the engine and disassembling it then why not go to a 3L anyway. You could do a full 3L swap for almost the same price as a set of ported heads with 3L valves... 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.
