Never heard of those heads personally. Let me ask you this...why would by a car with heads that no one has ever heard of? That would be enough to steer me away lol

Just a typical guy that doesn't know what he has, just what someone told him. Look for the 3 digit casting # on the forward top side of the head. Don't beat the guy up, I have know people who didn't know what the "LSx" on their intake meant.

SLP did the SS cars...but no engine mods were added from SLP. Not even the air lid.

Since I will be tearing into this motor I may be able to identify these heads, anything that I should look out for. Slp did have a stage 3 pkg but didnt include heads. I guess I will find out.

I wasn't trying to sound like a jerk or anything, so I apologize if it came across that way! Yes the casting number on the front passenger side head would be a good start

I can see no casting number on the heads. The valve springs are silver and are dual springs with a silver retainer. I will be taking them off in the next few days so I can check my lifters so I will post some pics, however I cannot find any casting numbers whatsoever! maybe there will be somthing on it.
