Aren't 186 also a correct 300 hp head?

I believe the 292 head was available as a production head with straight plugs, which is different from the "turbo" head with angle plugs. The turbo head was not a production head and was originally designed to be used on a turbo indy car engine but was never used, hence the name "turbo" head.

Can anyone confirm this? I believe the 492 was available as a straight or angle plug but I was under the impression that the 292 was an over the counter replacement head and was only available with an angle plug.
Anyone have the straight (or angled) goods on this?
