Default Stolen Heads?

Im joking of course...but my brother has a 99 WS6 with what seems to be factory heads...in fact I ran the numbers off the side of the drivers head and they match up for 99 heads....BUT the passenger head where you would see the 3 digit head number has been ground smooth. What the heck would that be about?...And why the one head? How wierd is that?!

Hmmm, maybe a clearance issue where they had to grind it down??? Though how that spot would prove an issue is beyond me, i can't really think of anything.

you do know that the cast number is only on one side of each head. and so if it visable on the driver side it wont be on the pass. side because its at the back of the motor.
