Te very first line on this page has a listing for casting number decoding....

In any event those heads are '79 vintage... which was right in the thick of the smog era. They have hugh chambers(69cc) which didn't build much compression and as a result the engine these came from probably had the lowest specific power output of any modern V8 at a measly 145hp or so...

You can take off the intake and use a mirror to look under the edge of the head for a casting number.

In 79, about the only heads you'll see on a 302 are the D8OE boat anchors.

E7's would raise the comp ratio by about a half point or more, I don't have a calculator handy. Higher comp ratio = more hp.
