Hey y'all, I recently picked up some 289 heads. I can't find out what type they are though. I ordered a set of rockers without thinking, and realized that the stock bolt size for the rockers isn't big enough for the new heads. The spark plugs are bigger on the new heads too. Anyone know what they might be?

I know this post is a few months old.
What's up with the threaded rocker arm stud holes?
