ok i went last night and hung out with chris (the guy doing my heads) and he said they are the older style like mangled said but where thinking someone had tried to fill in those gaps before. but im going to take the other head off as well and he is going to check both of them out for me and if needed do another valve job, he said he can do up to a 7 angle job but gonna see what he has to work with first, and mill them a bit more.
but im still needing some new head gskets, he recomends felpro mls or cometic mls gaskets, he said he dont know how gm style mls holds up to nitrous so idk still lol..

cometic, thats what I am going to use when i do my head swap. you may look into a custom grind cam while its down, and do it right. get all the power you can out of your setup.
