And even though they probably have the right exhaust manifold bolt pattern, check it before you slap them things on

They would have been off a GT390, they'd have had 14 holes drilled and tapped. Unless someone drilled the two center, bottom holes, ala 428CJ. If they were off anything else, they'd have only the 8 vertical holes.

C8AE-H is the "generic" FE head for 68-71. Std sized valves, unless someone's spent some money and upgraded them. 16 bolts doesn't signify a CJ head, anyone could have drilled the extra bolt holes at this point in time, just as I have done in the past. Casting numbers are the only way to ID a head
