Mopar [HEAD] Aches PLZ HELP!?

302 heads were standard from 1985 through 1991. They are getting harder to find. From what I have seen in the pick-n-pull yards, your best bet is to look for an 85 - 91 Ram pickup or van. Be careful though... some of the early 85's did not have 302 heads! Best bet is to pull the valve covers and check the casting numbers before starting to pull the top of the engine apart... it will save a lot of wasted time!

I saw one guy in the yard pulling some heads for his project, when all of the sudden there was an outbreak of cussing... he pulled a set of open chambered heads from an 85 and had not bothered to check the casting numbers first! I was laughing to myself inside, but didn't dare let out my amusement... I didn't want to have any wrenches or fists thrown in my direction!
