at first glance the combustion chambers look like Cleveland quench chambers but the spark plug angle appears to be more upright to the piston the intake is small and the valves are possibly flat / not canted

XE150985, these Experimental Engineering division heads are somewhat of a 'missing link'

note the 351C-2V exhaust port, the staggered valve lay-out and the recessed spark plug hole

here's the biggest missing link part, what's a Windsor style intake port opening doing on these heads? a Yates head from the1960's?
