the views shown don't really add much in helping ID them, other than they are likely classic heads and appear to feature under-bucket shim operation
pics of any cam ID, valve markings / combustion bowl (obviously heads would have to be off to enable this) and also inlet port style would help give an indictaion

@stockcar thanks for your reply. This was the original engine that came out my version 3 sti. So was just trying to get confirmation on if they are version 3 sti heads. I'm not sure how to take these apart but I had somebody on Facebook forum told me to take of the head covers and from the markings on the cams and if it got under bucket shims that maybe tell if it is genuine v3 sti heads?

what are you trying to achieve, just ID them or another reason??

the cams have ID stamp that would likely assist and also a pic of the inlet port shape would help without removing them from the engine
