Default YB Valve sizes for 500 bhp plus

Hi, been looking at various data for yb tuning and have repeatably seen reference to port sizes for 500-600 bhp but no dimensions for the valves that go with this spec to remove the restriction associated with them?. Anybody know?, also what cam combination works well in the band and how much work is required to allow fitment of these cams (presuming that they are going to have significant lift).
