Some other stuff I got:
1969 Z28 intake (iron)
Iron 4 barrell intake, no EGR
2 bbl intake (iron), with EGR, with 2 bbl Rochester
1965? Corvette 4bbl intake (iron) with Rochester 4-Jet (ever heard of those?)
350 crank
stock rockers, springs, valves, retainers, and locks
Gotta decide what to do with it all. I'll know more when I get everything cleaned up and checked out. All in all, not bad for the price...

882 - This head had the smallest port size of all the heads we tested. A set of 2.02/1.60-inch valves can be swapped in but be aware that without blending in the short side radius, the results usually find lost airflow.
462 - This head was a small chamber head used on 327ci motors until the end of 1968. The flow can be improved a little with larger valves and port work but the additional cost of this is impractical in comparison to what you can by some other aftermarket casting for.
