5th digit G = 383

I believe that the machined flat pad is at an angle to the left of the distributor, on this engine.

There is a slim chance that that car could have 915 casting heads(since it's a 383) on it. If it does, you could probably sell them for more than what you paid for the car.

Pull a valve cover and look. It probably has 516's, which aren't worth anything(even to guys who like them, like me)

361's weren't very common by 67, if they were even available. I had a 66 charger with a 361.

Yeah ,that would make my day! How much are 915,s worth? I have 2 sets now.One set has 2:14--1:81 valves.I know they are 1967 only,--Right? Some say the 906,s flow better.But arent they the same head except for the chambers?

Throw them on ebay and see man.

As far as I have read, the runner design is the same as the 906.

The only difference is the closed chamber.

As for which is better, that has been debated many times, and I'm not about to stir that mess up again

It all depends on what you are trying to do. For the most part, I haven't seen a lot of value in the 915 heads, since EB came out with the 84cc Aluminum head. Then once Bulldog ever produces the 75cc aluminum head, there will be almost no market place for the old iron 915 heads.
