AUS got closed chamber heads to reduce the chamber volume to match the 302 cu in displacement
 
'Aussie' closed chamber heads came off of 302C's

Yes 302c Aussie heads are closed but at one point 351c 2v closed chambers did exist too, they were short lived but shared the same cc chamber size of the 4v and the same kidney shame but they had the 2v runners and valves
 
yes I'm aware that there are different chamber volume heads used in AUS, the larger volume chambers were likely used on 351 engines, but still, not in the US
 
to complicate matters AUS also produced open chamber 351C heads
 
I recall a guy bought a set from an importer (I forget which one) & they were not a matched pair, date codes a decade off & chambers so different it would be foolish to use them as a set. seller wouldn't budge said they're not damaged & suitable for rebuilding so sale was good
 
here's a page to ID AUS heads while bolted on an engine, not complete but can be a help

as to the actual CR of this build, can we get the piston part number to see if it's a flat top or has a dome or dish?
