What size valves are on 906 heads?

Any year 906 head will bolt up on a 65 big block motor. 2. 65 engines used closed chamber heads & I think you’d have a pretty large compression drop by adding 906 (open chamber) heads IF you are keeping the stock bottom end of the motor (I think 65 pistons set pretty far down in the cylinder).
Can you use 915 heads on a 906?
You might want to look for 915 closed-chamber heads (same big valves as 906’s & basically the same ports) OR machine out the stock 65 heads (or other closed chamber, non-915 head) to accept the lager exhaust valves from the 906/915 heads. 3.
When did the 906 heads come out for B / RB engines?

In 68, all the B/RB heads (906) got the bigger valves (and a larger combustion chamber).
