| RE: what year 390 heads are better? |

Well since I'm back here tonight for a look at the good ol'forum I'll tell you what I think about those C6-R heads. They've been talked about, reviewed and discussed here many times. I'll tell you right up-front that it's from this forum that I gained my knowledge and respect for these heads.
You're right on Brent about the intake ports, etc. The c-chamber is essentially the same as the C4-G heads too. An advantage the C6-R head has over the -G head is that it is cast with the boss to allow for CJ or even GT/unibody exhaust manifolds. This is important only to a restoration.
For performance purposes I would invest money into a set of C6-R heads rather than pay big bucks for a set of C8-N heads. The C8-N CJ heads are obviously great heads that contribute greatly to the value of a Cobra Jet 428 engine. But a set of built/worked C6-R heads will meet & beat the flow of the valuable -N- heads.
