Gripe Bb Valves Too Long

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHY THE 2.14 MOPAR PERFORMANCE BIG BLOCK INTAKE VALVE P5249200 IS 5.33 " IN LENGTH?
THIS IS ALMOST A 1/2" LONGER THAN OTHER AFTERMARKET VALVES I HAVE BOUGHT IN THE PAST.
IS IT FOR TALLER SPRINGS?(IT SEEMS EXCESSIVE)

ARE THEY LISTED IN THE MP CATALOG?
I DIDN'T SEE ANY EXTRA LONG LISTING.
DO THEY LIST PART # P5249200 AS EXTRA LENGTH?

Now there's a high tech discription for ya....

Does that mean they come as cut to fit...like bulk gasket material?

Have you ever heard of REV valves?

THE BOOK DOES NOT LIST THEM AS EXTRA LENGTH.I HAVE BOUGHT MANY AFTERMARKET VALVES WITHOUT A PROBLEM.
I THINK SOMEONE REPACKAGED THEM AND IS LYING TO ME.
THAT'S WHY I ASKED HERE.I WANTED A REPLY FROM SOMEONE WHO HAS BOUGHT AND USED THESE OR WHO HAS A NEW ONE TO MEASURE AND COMPARE.P5249200.
