You can use them but the extra valve size will not necessarily help performance. Many FE head porters claim that CFM actually is the same or a little less when going larger than about 2.12 in a 4.19" bore.

Be sure to check valve to piston clearance, the valve reliefs are not positioned properly in many brands of aftermarket FE pistons.
