They also could use the 520 casting cylinder head? If you can get a cup of coffee and think about the past for a bit, could you possibly fill in a few more blanks? Its the end of the season and I've got a little time now. Thank you in advance.

Yes , all the 66 stuff was 520 head, big 283 4 GC's ..Even the early stuff was 520 headed. Only one that wasn't is the 283 ,2bbl. SS/X car.
The 61 Vette was either 1 or two WCFBs , and the 59 was a superceded 62 fuelie unit.
Ask away,...while I can still remember this stuff.
