Hello, I am new here, and I am in the market for building a 250 inline six simply for the SBF Bellhousing and Flywheel/Flexplate Pattern, and I'm not completely sure that a 300 Six would fit inside the 1977 Granada even with the electric fan! (It is a puller fan, after-all)
I am looking to put 1.84" Intake valves, and 1.5" Exhaust valves, and I am concerned about the crazy length difference.
I understand that I can get the valve guides modified/replaced to allow for a 11/32" valve stem opening up more options for me valve-wise.
However, my main concern is the fact that the OAL for the inline 6 valves are around 4.260 inches, and I am concerned about the 4.911 length.
I am struggling to find valves with the head size, length, and stem diameter combination that would make this more "bolt-in", and it looks like my two options are to custom order from a valve manufacturer, or get the head and stem diameters that I would like, and get the length modified.
