Look at the date on it. One is first gen and one is second. I believe the second gen is a better head, but Im not exactly sure why.

the 2nd gen heads have a lil bit more aggressive cams then the 1st gen, the manifold is lil different, and as far as the engine as a whole, the block on the 2nd gen has higher compression, and the ecu on the 2nd gen is better...
