Like the title guys, are the heads sided on the 3.5 V8?
Reason I ask is I collected the engine boxes and just want to check if they need to go back on a specific side?!

Cheers

Hello Jono,

No, both heads are identical. Fit either on either side.

Just make sure both of the oil feeds through the head to the rocker gear are clear, because as only one of them is used, the other one gets blocked and so if the heads go back on different sides then you can lose the oil supply to the top end.
