[ QUOTE ]
This guy is pretty confident about the 041 head. Ebay [/ QUOTE ] I have still never heard of a documented case of 041 on a 302. Not saying it couldn't happen, just haven't seen it. I have to be a bit skeptical of this guy, especially in light of this statement: "According to GM, a book called "Chevy By The Numbers" and other experts these heads were only used in late 68 and early 69. Then they were replaced by the heads with casting number #3927186....Most all experts agree that these heads are in fact very-very-very rare." They were definitely made all through the model year. I had a set dated Sept of 69. I have seen several on pace cars and Z10's made in April & May. Don't know where he is getting this info. Steve: Your heads are quite interesting, and obviously used at the end of the 68 model year even though they were cast for the 69 as evidenced by the bosses. Have heard stories of other early 69 parts that made it on to late 68 cars, but yours is the first I have actually seen pics of. Pretty cool. Lynn |
