View Full Version : WTF aqre these heads
74hotrod 05-05-2005, 10:11:00 PM i got a pair of heads(and shot engine) from a friend for $100. he needed the money and he was given the engine. well, i took the heads off and they have 2.02 valves, guide plates, screw in studs and roller tip stamped stell rockers. this was on a stock motor in a turd of a 85 monte carlo. the thing is i can't find anything about these heads. i looked up the numbers but nothing. the sides are just plain and flat, noe special casting marks. the combustion chambers are either 72 or 76cc. heres what i found on the heads.
W L10 95 and NH I-037
i found Y6 2 and 60129 on the side. any help would be appreciated. thanks.
Batman 05-06-2005, 12:03:00 AM The casting number is under the valve cover.
chevyjeff 05-06-2005, 12:56:00 AM yeah you will have to find the casting number or post some pics or it wll be hard to help. Jeff
bryan1970 05-06-2005, 01:06:00 AM are the ends of the heads flat, like a machined surface? cuz if they are they might be either ftermarket heads or maybe like LT1 heads or something. although the LT1 heads have center bolts for the valve covers.
Damon 05-06-2005, 11:59:00 AM They can't be original from an 85 Monte Carlo, that's for sure. The biggest engine you could get in a Monty was the 305 HO motor (L-69). It had heads with press-in studs, 1.84/1.50 valves and no guideplates (plus they had little 58cc chambers).
74hotrod 05-06-2005, 06:21:00 PM yes, the sides are flat like a machined surface. i think sombody may have replaced the original heads with these not knowing what they were. the valves are stainless and the guide plates are manley. they are not for center bolt valve covers. the ports also look a little bigger than stock. aaannnd, it has springs with the newer style valve retainers and i think it has screw in valve guides

dustypowers 05-06-2005, 11:24:00 PM if they r chevy they are 461 or 462 if the 202 is orig is their a camel hump on the side where u would mount accessaries
chevyjeff 05-07-2005, 02:29:00 AM Screw in guides? That sounds strange. Can you host pics? Some of the guideliners are ribbed to give them a screwed in look. Jeff
74hotrod 05-07-2005, 04:15:00 PM did i say screw in guides? screw in studs with guide plates
chevyjeff 05-07-2005, 08:11:00 PM "and i think it has screw in valve guides" Yeah you kind of lost me there. Makes more sense now. Are you able to post some pics? Jeff
ryork 05-08-2005, 10:58:00 AM Sounds like World heads. Do you see a S/R anywhere under the valve cover?
74hotrod 05-08-2005, 12:02:00 PM i will need to take some pictures so it might be a few days till i can get them up.
rchydzik 05-08-2005, 05:11:00 PM They look like Sportsman II's.

Ztoy 05-11-2005, 08:48:00 AM Dart heads will say 'Dart' on the side and will have their size also printed on the sides. At least mine do.
