What Year 394
#2
If the heads are original to the block this will get you close.# 18 heads are 1959- 60, #20 heads are 61 unless it's a Starfire then its a #23, all the rest 62-64 are # 23 also including the Starfires....Tedd

63 & 64 had an aluminum water pump and timing cover .
There is a number stamped on the left head that will tell you the year , HP rating , etc .
Should be above the center exhaust ports . Can be de-coded using various shop manuals .
All 394's had bolts on the edge of the valve covers . 59 & 60 371's had them also , but were 2 bbl carb .
59 & 60 's had smooth valve covers . 61 thru 64 had " ribbed " top covers .
