Advice on heads...please.

I bought a '79 truck for various parts for my '68, engine being one. I pulled the engine apart a week or so ago and found the casting numbers on the heads are not matching. They are the same as far as specs. I've got a problem reusing them because the casting aren't the same. Am I being anal or am I right not to use these head?

Here's my plan. I bought an Edelbrock C3B highrise intake a few weeks ago, so now the engine has taken on more of a performance build than originally intended. I'm not wanting to go all out high performance but I want the components to compliment each other. I'm considering a set of camel humps for the heads, does this sound in line with what I want? What do you suggest? Keep in mind budget is an issue.
