The problem is the double hump heads are 40 yrs. old and by the time you put a few seats in them,surface them and replace the guides and do a valve job,put in screw-in studs,enlarge the spring pockets and what you still have is a set of 40 year old heads that don't flow as well as the new ones and are prone to cracks.Originally posted by 4dr 57
It's possible the casting number could point you to a certain vehicle application which may give you a ballpark idea. But specifically, no.
Camel hump heads came with a variety of combustion chamber sizes and I don't know that all of the larger chambered ones had 2.02"s. I would also suggest that the intake/exhaust port volume was larger in a number of models .
I have heard it said that care should be taken when enlarging for a bigger valve spring on the end that is near the water passage.
