Just tapped the hole deeper and ran the fitting in further to cover the hole.

Sadly we only got about 1min of idling in before we found the issue (which good, saved the bearings).

100% correct. The exhaust valves were moved .050 over. That is why e-heads come with 1.66 exhaust valves because a 1.77 valve would hit the valve pockets on most pistons that were made in the 90s...

Yes you are. Not everyone runs Butler pistons. Also did you check radial clearance on your pistons? .080 is a noticeable move.

More rpm equals more horsepower. Had to make big horsepower at lower rpm without big ci. Pontiacs are ci limited. Also 7000rpm is lower rpm. With today's parts engines will last forever.

What are you talking about? ET wins races, everyone is after et (well I guess if you're a super gas racer you're after mph lol).
Not sure how anything you've said helps answer the question asked.

That thing has had detention at some point. X16 fuel is good fuel. I ran it in a very high compression engine without issue. I'd double check your time and make sure you have good fuel supply.

15-20, engine never real gets hot 130 was it. Gibbs oil. Saw 15hp vs break-in oil.
I'm not recommending doing what we did, just letting people know we did it.
