FYI: Cleveland 4V heads feature larger ports/valves than the Cleveland 2V
heads. The 70-71 Cleveland 4V heads also feature a closed or quench-type
combustion chamber - 2V heads feature an open combustion chamber. 2V heads
also feature non-adjustable rocker arms.

Cleveland 4V intake diameter 2.19", exhaust diameter 1.71"
Cleveland 2V intake diameter 2.04", exhaust diameter 1.65"

Yet another $.02 worth from a proud owner of a 1970 Mach 1 351C featuring 4V
heads @ http://community.webshots.com/album/18644819fHAehGJAjt
