Can i just unbolt the heads and bring them to a machine shop and then have then measure the cc and valve sizes? i assume that'd be easy for a shop.
As for the cam, could they measure that too or would that have to be done while the engine is still all assembled in order to get the numbers?
im also thinking there may be a part # on the cam once its out that will help. Its a grind from doug herbert performance.
I am seeing that itll be easier to sell the 383 in peices so i guess i need all these numbers more now than before, lol. oh well...

Pull the valve cover and get the casting numbers off of the heads, maybe that can give us an idea of what cc the heads are. As for the cam, you can use a dial indicator on the rocker arm to measure lift. Then you can probably match it to a cam in the Herbert catalog.
