Basically a 66 (C6) and a 61 (C1) head. I am not familiar enough with the characteristics of these older heads to give you details, but surely someone will jump in.

ok, so far I have learn'd...

c1ae is a high port/large port 61 352/390 head with 71.2-74.2 chambers.
c6aer is a high port/large port 66 352 head with 71.2-74.2 chambers.

Both heads were ported/mill'd/valve'd by the same shop... so, I figure all is good.
