    Yea the hex is just the intake, basically they switched to this style mid 77' to allow more air volume through the intake.

    I found images of the flat heads here on this article

    I have a head that I want to get machined for a 2 barrel adapter, I believe it came from a 77 250. Heres some pic's, will you tell me if it's a flat or hex head. If anyone that has done this will tell me what adapter I need that would help too. Thanks Rick
