The Head # D8OE-AB are from a 351w. 1969-76 used 60.4cc chamber with 1.84/1.54-inch valves. Begining in 1978 the 351w chamber grew larger-69cc resulting in lower compression like the D8OE-AB with smaller valve size 1.78/1.45-inch in efforts to improve emissions and low-end torque. You want the 69-76 head for the best performance like C9OE-B, C90E-D, D0OE-C, D0OE-G, D0OZ-C or the D5TE-EB. Try with the windsord forum they might have more info. Hope this help.

Also look above the starter on the right-hand side of the block on 221/260/289/302 Boss 302 and 351w/351C engines for block identification.
