Default Big Block Heads

I have a set of 3999241 heads A 72 I believe and 2.06/1.72 valves on my 66 and was told that they came on the early c3 vettes with 454's. Is this true? I ask because I'm looking to pick up aluminum heads and would like to see these heads go to a corvette if they are for one.

couple hundred bucks....not like they are early rect port heads, obviously would be worth something who needs those specific dates, numbers.
