074 Head date codes

[iluv69s]

Chevrolet did not necesarily use the same font/numerical styles for casting dates on the same exact type part depending on the date the part was cast(boy was that a mouthful!!)...... for example these are 2 pics of original x-ram intake top plate casting dates which are only one day apart and still very different...

those heads on ebay are almost a year earlier than the others...

Not that that proves anything on the head dates...I'm no expert, but just showing real pics of real parts for comparison...

Per your picture inquiry.
Type [image] or [IMG] (either one will work)..in front of it,and [/image] or [/IMG] at the end of your attachment code below.

It comes out like this.

I see what you are saying but the dates on the heads look nothing like either of those dates. A one digit year code on a winter's part is much later in my opinion. I imagine the date is 1978.
