Looking For F-Heads 211 Julian Date Code

My W-30 was built the third week of November.
In the title is says I'm looking for heads with a Julian date code of 295. Talking to a friend very well versed in these awesome cars,
he informed me heads date coded 211 would be a much better match for my car. Sorry for the confusion.
I'm looking for a nice complete set of F heads with a 211 Julian date code.
I currently have a very nice set of C heads on my car now that I would consider selling
but not before I've acquired what I'm looking for. Just trying to make my car more correct!
I'm not looking for some junk E heads that have been made to look like F heads!
Any help or leads would be very much appreciated!
Thanks,
Brian

Just wondering...
You mention in your title you are looking for 295 & then state 211...
Makes we curious b/c my Fs are one of each....

Are they just mismatched or is this a thing?!?!?!

I was initially looking for 295 F heads. Upon further research in talking with a friend, I was told 211 date code was a better match for my car. I was also told some cars did come with a set of heads where the date codes can be different on each head.

My car was built the 3rd week of November too... (11.19.1969)

I would think 295 would be a better match... (10.22.1969)

Hey Brian, I hope all is well. FYI, my broadcast card is dated 11-14-69 and it came with 295 Julian date coded heads when I first purchased it in the early 80s. The intake and distributor were dated similarly so I assume they were all original. BTW, coincidentally, my car came from Mr. Cooper too, and I’ve heard of a few other high perf Olds he sold around then.
Take care,
Randy

I can't tell you a specific day, but going by the cowl tag, I can tell you it was built in 69 the third week of Nov.

Stephen Minore checked his data base and mentioned a few cars that were built the second week of Nov. with 295 date coded heads. He also mentioned several cars built the third week of Nov. that came with 211 date coded heads.
That's really cool that your car came from the same dealer!
Take care!
