Anyone know what casting marks were on World heads produced for the 2.9? A local guy has a set of used 2.9 heads. I haven't seen them yet but his description doesn't sound like an early or a late head.

World Products 2.9L Head Casting Marks

Hopefully the two pics help. The scribed part number is on the end of the head that does not have the threaded hole. The "WOR 011" is between two of the intake ports.

One of the other identifying marks of the WP heads is that the bolt holes for the ground straps on the Ford castings are for a 6mm bolt, the WP heads are for an 8mm bolt.
