According to John Mummert's site, the 471 heads were used on Ford trucks that were equipped with the 292 and Mercurys that were equipped with a 312/w 2-barrel carburetor. They have the same intake valve and combustion chamber sizes as the 1957 F-code supercharged 312. You can find this information on ford-y-block.com.

I have a pair of small G heads removed from a 1957 Ford PU 272 engine. The engine was from a Higgins speed boat. I would assume low hours on these vs a road vehicle. They appear to be in good shape, however, I’m in the Denver Colorado area. You might try the Facebook early Thunderbird and Y-block groups to find heads closer to you. The 113 heads would be a good option as they are on many late 1950s and early 1960s Fords with Y-block engines.
