Not too bad a deal. They're '72 340 heads which are exactly the same as 360 J heads, including the small intake valves. Choke and cup are gone, though, so you wouldn't want to buy this setup for a daily that's used in cold weather. Those pieces are both rare and very expensive since they're '71 only.

Some later '71 340's came with J heads with 2.02 intake valves.

915 J heads were introduced in 1970, they were used as the basis of the T/A (W-1) head. They were used interchangeably with the 894 X head in mid 70 and through early 72 340 production, most have J cast on them, but it is not the only letter that has been seen on 915 castings. There have been 915 casting heads with X cast on them as well as a number of other letters (H,L, etc).
