When working on the cylinder heads on the older engines ( 1960-1968 ) the '60-'68 heads do not flow well, as replacement '69 up heads are better, particulary D8 and E0 casting heads, which would come in 1979-1983 model years. these heads have 1.75 Int valve/ 1.36 Exh which can be machined to 1.5. The drawback to these heads is the chamber size is 62cc, '60-'68 heads are 52cc | When working on the cylinder heads on the older engines ( 1960-1968 ) the '60-'68 heads do not flow well, as replacement '69 up heads are better, particulary D8 and E0 casting heads, which would come in 1979-1983 model years. these heads have 1.75 Int valve/ 1.36 Exh which can be machined to 1.5.
