What he said. They are all E7TE castings. Came from a truck 302 but got different valve springs.

Is this a trick question?
The answer is no.

Yes....all non-Cobra engine heads were based on the E7TE truck castings (although some early '87 heads were cast as E5TE's)....but they were all the same head. As were the valves and valve springs.
