706 and 862 are the same heads just different casting numbers. If I recall correctly one of them had coolant issues. Not positive on which one.

706 heads were sand cast and the port seams were non-existant. in the 862 heads, the casting cores don't match up correctly and you end up with the bottom of the ports offset about 1/16th of an inch. and they don't flow worth a crap.
