When rebuilding my 260, I reached the conclusion that pretty much ALL of the
aftermarket heads are sized for the bore size & displacement of the 302 and
are really not suitable for a 260. The stock Tiger heads really are not too
bad for feeding the smaller engine, The castings are the same ones as the
289 K motor, per Monroes "how to rebuild small block Fords", and the small
chambers help keep the already low compression up.

Happy Motoring
