Buckawho, That's possible but of course, it's also possible that the heads were replaced at some point simply because the factory aluminum heads were too corroded to keep in usage.

The suffix after the part number indicates either an aluminum or cast iron head (-A or -B). Many of the aluminum heads have a number inside a circle, this indicates the manufacturer of the head. HT indicates the aluminum has been Heat Treated.

Hi....Maybe the engine is part of the factory rebuild program mentioned in the Early Ford V8 magazine a few months ago. BT

To be clear, these were replacement heads supplied by Ford for service.

To be technically correct, the numbers are not stamped in, but rather cast in.
