A really good head for the 283/307 is the L30/305 Vortec head.Castin g #059. These are a 58cc head & they will flow approx 220 cfm @ .500 lift with 1.84/1.5 valves.The chambers are not as efficient as the L31 heads, but, they work very good on small inch motors.Just like their big brother, the L31, they will need a Vortec specific intake.

EDIT: Sorry.I missed the part where you got it fixed !!! LOL.
