That casting is the 2bbl 400 head which was rated at 265 Hp .
The head is about 90 CCs and on a 400 gave a actual like 8.4 comp.

Bolted to a stock 421 you end up with a compression in the neighborhood of 8.7.

Flow wise they are better then the stock 421 heads.

These heads are 1.96” intake and 1.66” exh with pressed in rocker studs.

On a 421 you would need the 400 length push rods .

With stock 421 pistons you could not run and more then about .450” lift depending on the cam duration.
