Probably the same heads. See the link here:

Keep in mind the link is car engines. The PU truck engine probably had lower compression. Early 352 car engines may have had some dome, but regular fuel were probably dished and later premium fuel were probably flat with valve reliefs.

As for the difference in pistons in your other post, obviously the 352 is a 4" piston and the 360/390 slugs are 4.05. Compression height differs also.
A variety of dished and flat pistons are used. Car 390 pistons are used in 360 motors, resulting in sunken pistons and low compression. Car 410 pistons are used in PU truck 390s, again resulting in sunken pistons and low compression.

If you are going to rebuild it, just find some decent slugs with a CR you like and go from there.

As for the heads, post the casting numbers off them.
