    Help with head replacement

    I'm putting the heads back together, after pulling the whole top end to replace the exhaust manifold gasket.

    BUT I put everything separate as to drivers side and passengers side but they were moved (one of the joys of condo life) so each head looks identical. The only difference I can see is there are casting numbers. What I assume is drivers side has a 22 on it, and the other one has a 23. Am I correct, is there another way to tell them apart?

    Both heads are identical so it shouldn't matter which side you put them on.

      Just for clarification, With Ford part numbers it is always ending with even numbers on the right ( passenger side ) and odd numbers on the left ( driver side ) .
