It's the casting. KA are either a marine head or a service replacement. The GA heads are stock 1972 455 heads. They could have either 1.995" or 2.07" intake valves. Both are decent heads.

If you have a 400 in the car, KEEP IT. If you have to pay a little more for the 455 then so be it. You'd have to shell out the extra cash for a driveshaft if you get the 350 trans anyhow so consider it a wash.

Welcome to CO
I agree better off with the 400.
