but on my invoice sheet is says stage 2 which is what i ordered from texas -speed as they only list stage 2 lq9 72cc heads on there webpage so i didnt even know they had a stage 3 head. (or i would of gotten those)

a few posts later someone posted that the plastic bags are mismarked.

so...what am i to believe? the invoice saying stage 2 or the plastic bag saying stage 3?
