SB, There is no C6 listed like that in Steve Christ's book.
Maybe Bill can verify the number.

They're not 428 medium riser heads, they're not 428 police cruiser heads, either.
They are the same heads as 1966/67 352/360/390 used.
C6AE-6090-R =
C6AZ-6049-E replaced in 1968 with C8AZ-6049-M.

It's not so much that ebay sellers are liars, most are simply clueless!
If I had a dime for every false listing I've seen on fleabay, I would be a rich man.
One cluck listed a throttle cable for an 1966 F100 based solely on its C6TZ part number.
It does fit a 1966....PARCEL DELIVERY, that is.
Just wait till some poor sucker buys it...then wonders why it won't work.
He'll prolly show up here on FTE cryin' the blues. "Ma-ma, ma-ma...it doesn't fit!"

Should bolt right up...I've got '61s on a '73 block, if that gives you any idea of how wide a span in time covers of FE's (in general)
