    Stock I believe they are mismatched heads. 72 is a different design-- smog head. Get you a set of matched heads. Since the Al heads came out there are a lot on the market.

    Whats the difference between the two heads he has listed?
    You say one is a smog head! Thats the 72 right?

    But they are the same CC head! Both 71cc.

    Whats the difference?
    Just curious:Do No:

    Thanks Guys

    Thank you for the quick responces.

    Jim they are 2 sets of heads, I guess the 71 heads are better, One on engine one set in trunk. The car is a 68 Skylark Custum. Does anyone need some parts off a 68?
