Head codes LH-C 00* RH-C 00* (* denotes 2,3,4 etc).
Off-set inlet manifold bolt holes.
ID3 and ED3 Valve codes.
Pinkish colour code on valve spring.
Under bucket shim.






Post some pictures up of the cam markings if you can

P1/V5/6 heads are the only heads of this type (offset inlet bolts) that have small shims (5p style under the bucket)
