Default Good or bad 267 ci heads?

So I got my 305 block in the machine shop gettin it all cleaned up and re bored and honed. But I just got my casting numbers off the cylinder heads to find out they are heads off of a 267 chevy motor. Is this a bad or good thing

They probably have as small of a valve possible. Bad.

882s? I have never seen a set make power without some trope of work to the intake port. Very very rough castings from my experience. Have had a set or two.

not the best heads i agree. i went low 12's with a set just gasket matched to a felpro 1205. of course it was on a 355 too.

im not too sure that 350 vortec heads will fit on a 305, due to valves hitting the cylinder walls

267 Heads aren't horrible. I'd use them if that's what you have. They have small valves, but on a 305 I don't see that being a problem. Use them. The point of doing the 305 is because you already own it. If you're going to start spending coin on heads you might as well give up on the 305 and build a 355.
