What engine towers are these? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I got these off of a parts truck, Ive had them for a bit and I dont plan on using them. Want to know what they are so that I can sell them as such.

They were bolted on a 67-72 2wd chassis. I know they have a double hump like the 73-87 ones, but they are shorter. Look at the double hump height...these are shorter then the 73-87 ones. Are these repops?

Looks like 73-87 to me.
Maybe the later version was different from the earlier version.
Just a guess,...

I measured a set of 80s era ones that where in a truck on a rack at work. (11")

Here is the same measurements on the mystery ones. (10")
