<< So $650 for ported heads? Is this outright or core exchange? Didn't

Didn't say anything about a core charge, but it did have the valve sizes.
1.97" Intake and 1.625" exhaust. Comes with Chromeoly retainers and heavy
duty valve springs (P5349464) These springs are referred to a couple pages
later as being R/T springs. Also, a stock 360 head in the MP catalog has
1.92" intake and 1.625" exhaust. So either the intake valve is a little
bigger, or there is a typo. So I looked up individual valves and found that
Yes, they do make both a 1.92 and a 1.97. They also make a 2.02 for Magnum
heads. All exhaust valves for Magnum heads are 1.625. And they are listed
for 5.2 and 5.9 engines.
