knownign the year of the head will give you the answr to which it is. or if you have the upper t-belt cover the engine info should be on there

there should be 2 or 3 circles that have numbers in them. those tell you the month and year the head was built. which should give you a pretty clear indication of wht head it is. or you can test fit a dizzy on there, a z6 one wont line up right on a y8 head and vise versa
