head identification
This is pretty simple I hope where do you find the casting #'s on a small block head (ie302) when your looking at a greasy engine it would be alot easier if I knew exactly where to look!?

It's under the valve cover. You can't miss it.

I've never looked myself, but I was told by a reliable small block man, that the casting number on the newer heads (ie 302.308) were on the under sider of the head. Intake runner maybe? Thus, they are a pain to find.
I don't know first hand. The older ones are under the valve covers. |

Casting Number
Look on top of one of the intake ports. Sometimes you can look between the sparkplug holes on a SB Mopar head and find a letter, like X, J, etc. Still best to pull the valve cover, but the letters help narrow the search.

302s,308s
Casting number is under the intake port - removing the valve cover will tell you nothing about the casting number, unlike the earlier head versions such as 915, 894, 576,etc.

Thaks Dave & Dart. I don't have the greatest knowledge, when it comes to small blocks. I'm glad you guys were actually able to point him in the right direction.

ah I dont no about that. I have a set of 302 318 heads form mid 80;s Ram Charger, there stamped right below the valve cover, Thats how i spotted them, when i picked them up for pennies. Everyone look right over them, i seen them flopped them over sure enough there was the heart shaped chambers. The 302 DOES have the numbers below the valve covers. If anyone doubts it i will take a pic!
