C7AE-B Heads
I am looking at some used heads for my 360 (I plan to stroke it as well), I can't find any reference to these particular 67 heads (castings date to the fall of '66).
Does anyone know much about these relative to the stock C8s that came on the 360?

Are you sure they are FE heads?
I have a set of C7AE-A heads, and because they were such a short run before the C8's came out, I don't think they had -B heads. But I could be wrong of course
The below pic shows the C7AE-A head at the bottom, a C8AE head at top.

NumberDummy answered me in a PM, seems there was a -B, but he said they were no different than the heads that came stock on my 69 360. This is all very confusing as he also said in a differnet posting -
"C7AE-A = C6AZ-6049-AA / 1966/67 Galaxie/LTD 390 (2V & 4V) // 1966/67 Thunderbird 390 // 1966 Galaxie/LTD & Police Cruiser 428 // 1966/67 Thunderbird 428 // 1967 Galaxie/LTD 428."
- and I assumed that the heads on the 428 would be better flowing than those on the stock 360. Note that in his posting he was refering to the "A" and not "B". In any case I have another question posted - while researching the C7 heads I stumbled on a rebuilt 410 I can get pretty cheap, but I need to know what it will takt to mate a 410 (automatic) to an NP435.
