I've got a set of 93'* also, but there are so many length options close to what I measured, I need someone who has actual data.

Dealer is not likely to know. But I'll dig through my FSM.

What are everyone'* thoughts on the valves that supposedly work for me and a GN?

MM, FSM is no help. Doesn't even give the same type of specs for valves as those given in the eBay auction.

Why not order something that'll close the rockers all the way, and give you maximum lift? You might not necessarily need stock size anymore..
