Hey guys trying to figure out if these heads i have r in fact boss heads or just anchors , got them from my one of my buddies over the weekend he thought they were boss heads off a early 70's 302 , only casting #'s i can see are 7F1 /might be an I , on other half of head i found WPC, and a number 2 , now looking at these compared to my h.o heads the valves do look alittle bigger , but anyways any help would be great thanks, Rob

boss heads have canted valves. looking from the top of the head (as if they were sitting on the car) if the valves are in a straight line across the head than they are not boss heads. if they are staggered a little. every other one about an inch off set. good luck.
 
cleveland heads have water passages in the deck of the heads and boss heads are in the manifold side.
