    Heads dont match.

    I have a 86-88 350 4 bolt main, Head castings are 093 and 261. The 093 are 64cc heads, cant find no info on 261, I dont know if its a factory replacement head or what. I just need to know if they're the same.

    I'm coming up with

    14019261 1984-88 350 1.94 1.5

    Neither sound like a small chamber head, but I'd get the measuring cup out. If they are 76 cc heads, the 12 cc difference is about 3/4" ^3, should be pretty obvious.

    I think that is a 76cc head from an earlier 1980s engine.
    That which you manifest is before you.

    093 gives me a bad book. not listed.

    a 193 is listed, same years you posted.

    76cc was 1970s madness, crap for blocks went with them. Never learned otherwise. Not even good option for turbo.

    even then I spotted today was 66 for turbo.

    I wonder if the tip in the book could apply, there is a strong head and a weak one..doing same job. looking at certain parts of the head can determine this.

    Would they have came on the same engine from the factory?

    seems a good chance. Not a place even the dumbest of mechanics play around. cyl heads are serious.

    I am curious to castings.. a guru knows stronger from another, even though the same.
    if you really want to get precise, but I don't have any more on the numberings.

    Well, I'm still uncertain, I have 74 509 400sbc, that I've had for years. I'm gonna check its condition tomorrow. Would 882, these heads or the original 400 heads work better.
