While planning my cam, I realized I would need to install double valve springs. To do this, I've gotta cut the valve seats, and y'all know the rest. However, I can't find an exact figure on the valve stem size to get new retainers, locks, or even the arbor for the cutter. I know it's gonna be in the neighborhood of 5/16 to 3/8 of an inch, but that's it. Any help would be appreciated here! Heads are stock details but a fresh casting so not really aftermarket so much as stock

Don't need double springs no machine work what so ever. How much lift in this cam?

.377/.380 at the lobes. I'm already planning for dished pistons if I'll need them. I'll share a link to the cam page if you like
