Default older PRC stage 2.5, 5.3 heads?

Does anyone know if the prc 5.3 heads have changed since they started making them? i know someone selling a set and he says they are prc heads, but they dont have anything on them that says prc. i was thinking maybe when they first started porting them, they were not labled.

Mine were ported by them around 07 or 08. I sent them my head and they didnt come back with any markings identifying the work.

If you're going to buy second hand, be sure to get an invoice showing he/she purchased them from us. That is the only way to know that they COULD be PRC heads.

I bought some PRC 5.3 heads about 6 months ago and they are stamped PRC where the casting # used to be. Is there a serial # etched onto them anywhere?
