Easy way to look at lobe center angle. The better the heads the wider the centers can be for the same rpm. So Olds heads are not great the tighter centers will probably work better except maybe the very top end where the wider lc will be equal. With only 2 degrees difference in lc the power difference will not be that much. I would try the tighter lc.
