Hi Tony. Ford actually supplied a service tool (jig) that was used to grind out the valve relief in the older heads to fit the later engines. You flipped it over to grind out the other valve relief in each chamber.
Just to add to Robs bit about the separate engines. One side always runs slightly hotter than the other side. That's normal apparently. The C.R. is not exactly the same, one side to the other. There are other things as well. Henry Ford's original concept for the F.H. V8 was originally two Model A's, sharing the same crankshaft.
