It depends on what you intend to accomplish with the motor. If you want it stock then you need the same casting number heads. If you dont care - then 318 heads pre 1974 or so would work, but will lower your compression ratio, open chamber design. (The old 273 heads are closed chamber.) I would steer away from the post 74 heads or newer - or those that have the air pump bosses below on the exh ports. Not that these are bad heads, but that the boss on them interferes BADLY with the stock exhaust manifolds on the drivers side in particular. Some folks grind those off to fit, which is ok too. But I am lazy, but why do it if you can get heads that dont need that modification. Again it all depends on what you want to do.
