Thanks for that link.

Looks like AFR 190's are the best thing going!

That is, considering runner size compared to airflow.

Those Vortecs always look good as well...

Should be 882, I believe, and the numbers for them are on the chart.
Check your NCRS Juding Reference Manual, the head castings are listed in my '73-'74 manual and should be in the '78 manual as well.
