Re: I would look at larger intake valves.

Yes, I have found that the exhaust should generally flow 75% to 80% of the intake to be able to make the power the intake ports can support.

As is, the SVX heads only flow 65% at .450" valve lift. So they respond well to exhaust porting and to a more aggressive exhaust cam profile.
