Hey George,
Yeah, that 'flying wings' logo is the 'trademark' marking of the maker of those heads, i.e.- Specialty Ford Parts store in Rosemead, Ca.
He, Jim, still has some new /old stock that I just saw this past Saturday. And, as guessed the first number on stamp area pad...is YEAR and the next three numbers are which # in production made.

BTW.. I do not believe that these repro heads have any c/r stamping on them. IMO, they do not even know what c/r is..hey it's a copy..ha !

If you call Jim At Specialty Ford Parts in Rosemead he will tell you the original compression ratio based on the numbers stamped in the pad on the head.
