And if you throw in some headers and after market intake you can get alot more.
also 1969 is a long time ago are you sure those head have not been shaved in the
last 20 years or so?
Are you gonna run a 2V Carb?

Im not so sure if they been shaved but there are shims under the valve springs so I know they had valve work. I plan on running a comp magnum flat tappet 280H cam with an edelbrock performer or performer RPM with a 4 barrel carb.

is there a way of finding out if the heads had been shaved?

CC the heads is the only right way. some times you can tell on a head if its been over milled by looking at it if you mill alot of that head but still needs to be CC . on the bbc chevyOEM iron head there was as cast spot on the ends of the head look like dogs ears when you get past that they have been cut alot not sure if theres a Ez way on you heads but in the photos they look like they need a trim
