Casting numbers on the heads won't help.

The head casting C7AE-A was common on any 1967 FE. Could be 352, 390, 410 or 428. Parts often get swapped around over the years too so it won't help identify the block in any way.

FE block casting numbers are not a valid way to identify them either. You can find out when it was cast by looking at the date code cast into the block right next to the oil filter adapter. The casting number on the passenger side of the block will identify it as being from a certain period of time, not much else.

You really need to measure the bore and stroke to know what you have.
