Default general head question

Is there a way to tell different brands apart? Does everyone stamp their names on it? Like prc arh etp tfs etc? Buying a set today and want to rest my nerves.

I know with trick flow they have their name on the front and back of each head. I just put 215's on my LS1, not sure about the rest. Never seen them.

I know PRC, AFR, TFS, ETP, P.I. all stamp their name on them. All the top of the line head companies do.

What did you buy?
