The only sure way is to pop a valve cover and check the casting number. One you have that, go to mortec.com and check it out. http://www.mortec.com/castnum.htm ------------------ 79 Z28 Bought new, honeymoon ride, same wife, same car.

Mortec will only tell you how a particular head number it was originally built. If the heads have been planed, ported or reworked for larger valves there may be a discrepancy between mortec's figures and your heads actual comp. ratio, flow rate, valve size etc. 1978LT 09-14-2005, 12:52:00 PM I've also seen 462624 on there. midnight motor 09-15-2005, 07:03:00 PM ditto on the 624 ------------------ Ass, gas, or grass,no one rides for free My project 79' (http://79camaro.com/) |
