Double hump
194 valves
Casting # is 3890462
Dates are 1 1 6 + 1 6 6
Will they fit my 88 block? Or is the roller block different?
Would it be worth it to do?

Here ya go:
3890462....66-67...302/327/350..Camel hump,no accessory holes,64cc chamber
These will work, but, accessories will have to be removed or use 67 & earlier mounting brackets, as they bolted accessories to the exhaust manifold & intake, rather than bolting onto the front of the engine. Also, these heads used washer sealing spark plugs, ie, 13/16 socket size.
I'd go for a set of 492's, they came with accessory holes and used tapered seat spark plugs, ie, 5/8 socket.
