Mike just wanted to ask you a question..Did the 1972 LT-1 come with double camel back heads? Thought I bought a completely original LT-1 and found out that I've got a single camel back heads on the car. It looks like everything else is original. I looked up 041 heads did come with a 350 in 1972 and was wondering what the markings are on those heads? Anyway just trying to figure this out. Thanks Steve

Across the C3 range, 1970 was the final year of high compression and last year of small combustion chambers.
1971 ushered in an era of low compression and large chambers.
have/had two 1971 sbc C3 ... both 487 large chamber heads
