Default What casting number?

Found a set of heads on craigslist off a 99 corvette. What casting number would these be? And would they work on an lq4? Might be too late because my intake is going to be here tomorrow for my 317 heads, and they more than likely dont have the same ports. Also has the cam too if any of you guys know anything about this. Might could use some of this stuff and the guy doesn't know off the top of his head any of this info.

Thats from a search lol.Yes there the same ports but Id say the 317s with a nice mill would flow better than heads off a 99 vette. Being that ive read that the 317s flow similar to ls6 heads but the low compression sucks. But being that there going on a lq4 (if stock pistons) the compression is still ganna be low even with a mill. Im sure someone with more input will chim in
