How to tell which head I have?
The good thing about different heads is there's no serial number that makes them specific to your car. The block does but not the head, as far as I know. If I'm wrong we'll know in just a few minutes.

saturday night music thread
Saw Animal House in 1978, watched it so many times since then but just found this out last night watching a behind the scenes of the filming of Animal House. Robert Cray was the bassists for Otis Day and the Nights at the Dexter Lake Club. He was a local where they filmed. In the late 1970s he lived in Eugene, Oregon, where he formed the Robert Cray Band and collaborated with Curtis Salgado in the Cray-Hawks. In the 1978 film National Lampoon's Animal House, Cray was the uncredited bassist in the house party band Otis Day and the Knights.

Pretty decent looking rear bumper delete in my opinion. Probably not a good idea to drive close to schools with those plates.
