Ford 289 Valves for /6 - what a deal!

csheehy said
Early Ford 289 valves (look up 1965) are just the right size for a size-up valve replacement, and Star Performance is selling Elgin I-1670B (1.780") & E-1669B (1.453") valves for $3.70 & $3.62 per-pair. Google those part numbers - this is a deal!

The suffix "B" in the part number indicates a boxed-set of two - be certain to order using these numbers. The length is comparable; but may require slight massaging to work. My full set cost $32, with shipping.

Not sure how long this pricing will last... mine are due to arrive Thursday :)

That is a nice price, thanks for sharing the information.
And I know that you are looking at springs, but I have found it best to have the valves in hand when the head seat work is done, then get the retainers and measure the installed height (valve closed) and from that subtract the lift at the valve and get the valve open spring height then go valve spring shopping to get the seat pressures that match up with cam.
To fine tune it you can get keepers with off set groves that move the retainer about .020
