Sound like 98/99 F-body.

what's the difference between the 806 and the 241? Why is the 806 less desireable?

806 is 98 only, there perimeter bolt, so you'll need 98 valve covers. there is a different casting (die vs sand) on the 806 vs 241. as a whole the 806 are the lowest flowing head compared to the 853's and 241's.
