Possum, look between the middle two spark plugs on the heads for the casting number. The numbers you posted are date codes and are not much help in identifying your heads.

What year do you think is the best non-hipo heads for a 390FE? As in the smallest chambers, largest valves, and possibly best port dimension. My heads are C8AE-H I think. The CC size is 68 to 72cc, with 2.02I and 1.65E size valves. This is just a standard cylinder head, but I figure have respectable numbers.

~'71 F-100 Sport Custom Reg.Cab
-390FE w/Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, 780cfm Holley, ported & polished cylinder heads,
Crane Cam (0.548"I,0.580"E), 10.5:1 CR, Black Jack headers, true double roller timing chain, and high volume oil pump
-C6 transmision w/B&M 2600rpm stall
-9" Ford Rearend w/4.10 Richmond Gears & 31 spline axles
-215/65/r15 Yokohama's for the front & 28"x13.5"x15" Mickey Thompson ET Street slicks for the back
Best 1/4 mile time @ 3375ft altitude 14.69secs @ 92mph

~'98 F-150 XLT Reg. Cab Flareside 4x4, Black, 5.4L, 3.55LS, tow package, 285/75/r16 Mud Terrain BFG's,K&N, GTS headlight covers, Alpine changer w/FM mod, Clifford alarm system w/keyless entry & starter disable // Future considerations: Bed mat, tonneau cover, 4" suspension lift or 3" body lift.

~2000 Suzuki RM125 Dirt Bike
-no need for any modifications! (yet)

The C6AE-R heads are identical as far as ports to the 428CJ, but you'll have to install the oversize 428CJ valves.
