head casting #

I have a pair of heads lying around from *** Knows Where. The casting # is 9988339X. Does anybody have a clue on these? Might they be better than my stock LO3 heads?

Probably this one: 3986339X...71......307/350......74cc chamber

It is dung; low perf 2-barrel early smog stuff.

Sounds like it's time for a cast-iron scrap run.

Odds are, if RB is right about them, they will actually make your LO3 worse than it is with the stock heads.

Thanks. That's what I suspected. The sun never shines on my parade.
