Correct head small block
« on: August 07, 2008 - 08:17:56 AM »
My 340 head looks like this one. There is a number ending with 587 and on the rt end it has 360 stamped on it. Is the correct for a 73 340? thanks  :clueless:

587 castings are pretty good, the intake is 162cc & 72cc exhaust..
not a bad head to mess with..
