Mopar LA/Magnum/W2 flange pics

MAPS said

I found this picture of w2 heads, not exactly like mine but this is what I meant by circular ports, now that gasket pic has then on the last pic as circular but closer in together, so I can't say for sure.
These are aluminum the ones I have are steel heads, I am (almost) sure they did not make them aluminum in the beginning when they first came out.
I could be wrong, oh God knows how many times I've been wrong but I can't say that the heads I bought back then were just out maybe a few yrs and it was unheard of having aluminum small block heads.

That looks like a W5 head. I don’t remember the bolt holes being that high on the port on those...but my memory is slipping for sure.

The W2/5 have that D shaped exhaust port (which is way too big BTW but there isn’t much you can do about that though) but I was looking at the chart in the OP and was looking at the bolt hole location.

I was going to take a picture but 70aarcuda did it. Now that I went back up and looked at it again, I remembered how it went.

The bottom W2 head has just the W2 pattern on it. The top head has the W2 and OE pattern on it.

Got it. If you don’t think about this stuff you start to loose it...
