Lightbulb question bout 862 heads

I was thnking bout milling my heads and putting 2" intake valves in. Are 2" valves a direct swap or do I have to do a valve job to them?

Best to check with your machine shop. Prices very from shop to shop and especially across State lines.

I have been Quoted by several shops and paid $160 in the past to do a standard Pair of V8 heads. So basically $10 a Valve.
