Got the front clip off and a head pulled today. It is a ‘74 block with 974 heads. What makes those heads good?

The piston sure wasn’t havin a good time. The bore looked and feels untouched.
They're a mid to late J type smogger head but with a good exhaust port and (IIRC) a lower volume intake port with a raised floor. A good on a budget iron head and even decent for a 318 build. I came across post by @MOPAROFFICIAL a couple of days back that I cannot locate now where he touches on the J and some of the decent later smogger castings and covers some of the different quirks. I'm hoping to find it again because it explains more than I can remember at the moment.
