    Not really. In 1970 all heads shared the same valve sizes and log volume. The only difference was combustion chamber vloume. So a 1970 170 head would increase compression but not choke power.

    The best heads are 1977 up. They have the larger valves, valves for unleaded gas and largest intake volume.
