so nothing too out of the ordinary there, but the heads look the ones on my 69 Z/28. I have to look at the pictures closer to make sure. I just looked in Jerry M's 67-68 book and the double hump heads look very different in 67 & 68. In your top picture the left hand head is kind of far away but it looks like it matches my 69.
Thanks for all the information! That's a big help.

Should have no problem getting 300 to the back tire. Hope this helps
Yeah i took a picture of the pan because it seemed pretty deep. 300 is a lot more than i expected. Thanks for the info man!
