    No they aren't. The double hump have two curved bumps. Pop the covers and see what the part number is. Double hump are 3782461. They were used from 62 - 65. They had either 194 or 202 valves based on the horsepower. 250 and 300 had the small valves. The high performance engines had the 202 valves and solid lifters.

          461X heads were equipped with 2.02/1.60 valves on '64 and '65 SHP/FI engines.

          You can lump the term "fuel injection heads" into the same category as "numbers matching" and "all original". The only true FI heads are the 461X as they were used on all FI engines from '6l to '65. Virtually all later casting numbers with 2.02/1.60 valves are called "fuel injection heads", but they were never used on fuel injection engines.

            I always cringed at this line from Bruce Springsteen's "Racing In The Streets": I got a '67 Chevy with a 396, fuelie heads, and a four on the floor.
