The combustion chamber volumes varied greatly between the various years of the Ford smallblock. Grab a copy of "How to Rebuild Your Smallblock Ford" for the details. If you want me to look up a year for you when I get home, let me know. The 68 head has one of the largest volumes with the 73 having a smaller volume. I know this because I put on 73 heads on my 68 Cougar rather than the original due to this difference. Why, you ask? Different piston dish designs.
Good luck,
Mikey
