Default LS6 heads

I understand the 02+ Z06 have lighter valves than the 01s. How do you tell the 2 apart? Also what are the cast #s for the various LS6 heads?

Thanks,

"How do you tell the 2 apart? "

You could cut them open and see which ones have the drilled stem,
or
you could put them on a tripple beam scale and see which is heavier.

Was this a trick question?

I found a set of heads for sale LS6 heads with valves no springs etc.

I wanted to know if they were 01 or 02+ valves if there is a way without weighing them.

I also wanted the casting #s for LS6 heads but I have searched and found the answer to that one.

On the combustion chamber side there is an 02 stamped into the head.
