Both this and the WY block you posted are interesting, do you have a picture of the casting number?

PS, I may be selling one of my 68 XW motors if anybody needs one.
I was wondering myself if the heads came from that engine, but then again the block
casting and date goes against the norm so maybe the whole engine does??

Here is the casting picture.
