Hey folks, I recently purchased most of an E block engine in pieces with the plans to use it in a 1967 442 project. The seller described it as coming out of a 1967 Cutlass Supreme he turned into a race car many years ago. So I'm guessing it had the turnpike cruiser option. The head with the application code stamped into it starts with a letter P and does not have a letter at the end of the number string. Can anybody confirm this was the Turnpike Cruiser application? The heads have faint red paint on them, other parts have the bronze. He believes these were the heads that came with this engine but I just want to be sure. I'd really like to swap it for one with the V code to move my project car back toward original, as much as possible anyway. John

I can check my heads when I get home but I am pretty sure they are stamped V ? like the 442 heads.

 

In '67 an initial P with no letter on the end was from a 10.25:1 2bbl 425 from a big car (painted red).

My 67 TC heads are V stamped

 

Thanks guys. Well I've got the block and crank, but I'm still looking for the heads then.
