Default LS1 Head casting #GO29????

Has anyone heard of LS1 head casting # GO29? Are these any better than the 97-99 heads? They come on ASA crate engines.

These heads are on ebay right now, item #2460280670. That is the casting # provided for these and I've never heard of this # myself.

The casting number is #853 (on the corner of the head). The "G029" number is a production number, probably some kind of casting info or a Julian date of some kind (it is in the "valley" between he rocker arm bosses.....

That makes sense. The # just did not fit, and I figured some one could let me know something. I did not know if the ASA crate engine had better heads or what.
