Gentlemen, I'm new on here so please bear with me, I'm building a 409 for my 58 Biscayne. I found that I have one 690 and one 583 head on this engine. I beleive them both basicly the same head. Will I run into a problem running one of each instead of a set of either number?? Also this motor has 11 to 1s in it, the block was decked and the heads were trued(enough to clean things up only), will this give me too much compression for todays fuels???? The car will be street driven only but I'm sure it will be screwed on occasionally Thanks for your help Mike
