OK I've built 5 or 6 289s and 302s but this is a new one on me. I bought a 65 289 rebuilt and the dumb SH$# who built the motor put
65 valves into a 66 head (rail rocker arm heads with non rail rocker arm valves) now i'm pulling the heads and doing a valve job. Changing heads on 302s to 289 heads or 351 heads and i've never had this problem. Am I just lucky or what?????
