    both heads look to be 76 cc so if engine was rebuilt one head could of been crack so then other casting would be put to use . this is a common deal long as valves size is matched not to big of a deal. i just did two sets of boat engine one had busted heads so i mached with head chamber cc and valves size . casting numbers told me the new heads for the engine were same valve and cc . some heads came with 3/8 ex stem but will work fine gm over the years cut the casting weight by the out side of the head is more scalped out and more open deck . but if all size i posted engine just will not know
