Anyone here who knows a bit about air-cooled motors?

I'd like someone to take a look at the heads that I have listed for sale, I'd be willing to pay them, I'd just like to know for sure what the valve sizes are and what actual shape they're in, so I can stick them on eBay or theSamba or eBay. Please let me know if you're in the Missoula area and maybe we can set something up. I just thought about it after I posted, and I haven't noticed many dragstrips out here in Montana, but I dont' want to eBay them if I don't know exactly what the specs are.
Thanks,
Tim

Hey again,
Here are some pics, but I don't think anyone will be able to tell me what the actual valve diameters are, or the port diameters, or anything else, from the pics, that's why I was hoping for someone to take a look at them in person. The rust on the valves was just on the surface, and I basically rubbed it off after my wife took the pics, but, like I said, the ports will need to be repolished.
Thanks,
Tim

I am not sure who is specializing in air cooled around missoula anymore, but you might give a call to Mountain Imports and see if they have any old good air cooled tech bouncing around in there. IIRC there is also a ship in Helena, but I can't remember the name right now.....
