    Anyone have a photo of a 1960 2x4 head markings

    I need to make sure I have the right heads on my car. I see some cars that have 2x4 have a "twin tower" markings and some have the triangle. I do not know which is correct for my car.

    Triangle markings are correct for a 1960 283 with 2X4s.

          There are different versions so look carefully.

          Check out the following link. http://midvette.homestead.com/engineheads.html
          Here are some words extracted from the web page listed above.

          "The example shown above was machined in Flint, MI in 1960. The casting id symbols were "broached" and, as a result, present a smooth surface, as in photo 3. In Tonawanda, NY (Just north of Buffalo) Chevrolet made the same parts with the same casting number, 3774692, but they were not broached in this manner. As a result, the Tonawanda versions presented a rough sand cast surface on the ID Marker areas."
