Alright I need some help. I feel stupid asking this but I have a set of cylinder heads from 68. Casting c8oe problem is that all info I find for casting #'s has a suffix on part #. Where do you find suffix on cylinder heads? Please help. Trying to determine cc of heads and get stock height--think they have been milled already.
thanks
Dave

On the bottom side of the head, usually on one of the intake runners.

Bought them off friend. He had pulled them from motor that he was building to race. don't know motor. Already rebuilt them to 302 specs (shop project). Just trying to find out what they really are to verify height if they have been milled or not. As much info as possible would be great.
