Default Mystery Heads

Alright, well i'm looking at buying a pair of heads for my 5.0. The guy doesn't know what kind of heads they are and neither do I. He got them from one of his friends garage's. I was wondering if this little info sounds familiar to anyone, or would anyone have any kind of guess what kind of heads they are. All I know so far is that they have 53cc heart shaped chambers. Not sure about anything else really ...lol... oh, and they have dual valve springs with dampers on them. Any help or direction would be nice.

haha, thats not much info for us

clean them up and try to look for any casting marks whatsoever. Get a pair of dial calipers in there and see what size valves they have too.
we'll go from there

Well hopefully I will be getting some more info on them. Other then that.. I am thinking of buying the whole motor they are on. $1300 for the motor with a forged crank, rods, and pistons, those heads, and a police issue block. I'm just not sure yet how I am going to get it from NC to here in NY.

Default Block???

Could you get some info on the "police issue block"? Cause there aint no such animal. (retired supervisor, LAPD Motor Transport Division).

Look for casting #'s. They are your friend. Don't buy anything that you don't know what it is!
