Uhhh, sorry. You have to be able to come up with the perfect head, the perfect configuration, and the perfect components without knowing the details on the rest of engine. Plus, you have to guess at what the customer is really going to do with the engine. That's the rules... and it makes it more fun for the rest of us.

Cast number is usually between the center exhaust ports on the outside of the head.

Just got home from work. I went out and found the info (C6AE-F) does that tell anything.

Your safest bet is to take and post several pictures -- that will eliminate "screw ups." Brent is likely going to want to see your intake manifold as well.
