There should be a six digit casting number above the two center exhaust ports. If it is 413 191, these would be the K heads. K heads were used on marine motors and as a parts counter replacement for most of the performance big block heads. K heads are good for performance. You will likely hear from someone that K heads were the replacement for W-30 heads. In fact, by the early 1980s they were listed in the parts book as the replacement for just about every older big block application, so don't read too much into that.

By the way do you know how much they might be worth? they were restored like 15yers ago and not used. have some minor rust on the surface..
