Im pretty sure i just need the stock ones but im not sure on the blocked or unblocked heat crossover as i have no idea what they are talking about. Orignally i purchased just a stock set of felpros when i built the engine...so any help would be apprecited...and just in case it helps my heads are stock castings with i believe 2.02/194 valves 3 angle valve job and the intake is a Edelbrock Performer EPS...

You should use the one with the blocked heat crossover on the Edelbrock Performer man. Stock truck manifolds had the exhaust crossover in the center of the man. to warm the air and allow the choke to open when the manifold heats up.
