a 250se head won't fit as the bores are different size.

Dave is correct, it will not interchange the coolant passages in the block and head are also different.  Also be aware that an early 280 SE,SL cylinder head will not interchange with the late 280 SE, SL cylinder head. 230SL and 250 SL, SE cylinder heads are interchangeable.
