340 X Head Valve Options

3rd pic looks like your chambers are about an inch deep! Its only the head gasket that gives that effect. The "double" springs you mention are probably just spring dampers , every 340 head I have seen has had them. Exhausts get the hardened seats, intake is not an issue. Have you looked into 7mm magnum valves? Do they make a 2.02? Or even back cut Manley valves?

Yeah the gasket was just coming off the head.

I have not found the 7mm magnum valves. I was looking at a few used NASCAR valves. They are also 7mm, but i guess the way they are made they need replaced often. Racing parts are not street parts.
