 David, it all depends on the type of cam, solid or hydraulic and the type of rocker arm studs, threaded straight shank or non adjustable with a shoulder.  In your signature you list two different heads and no mention of cam.  Let us know what you have and we will give you an answer.Mike

 Haha yea a little confusing. I guess I should update that. I have rebuilt 68 302 heads and a stock 302 cam. All are from 1968.
