SA shows as 1962 Full Size car. If you are looking at the FC that is the prefix and does not denote the block use. Only the SA suffix.

3972870 Block shows 62-67 327

3731539 head shows 55 - 67 265/283

This makes better sense.

Jeff, are the valve cove bolt holes staggered, top/bottom or straight across?
If my memory is working correctly I believe anything after '59 is straight across. Staggered would be pre '59.

Staggered. There are nice shape Corvette covers with 1 small chip on 1 fin
Looks like Billk figured it out. 62 67 block 55 to 67 heads. So actually 55 to 59 heads by the staggered bolt holes
