Default Head Identification
I have heads that came off a 1969 block, but want to know if heads are 1969. The heads say 302 on one side and the other side says 9J29 and above that says T. What year are they from?thanks.

I don't remember that casting number right off. Does it have the 14mm plugs or 18mm?

Flip the heads over, there will be a casting number there. If its a 69 it will start with C9. C means is the decade meaning 60, 9 is the year. If you give me the casting number I can ID the head and tell you what car it came from.

Look on the underside of the head between the pushrod holes.
