Have you taken the valve covers off and checked the head casting number? That should give you an idea.

No sir I haven't I didn't know they had a number there

Yeah, just take the valve covers off and there should be raised numbers cast into the heads. They are usually right in the center. Just be careful when reading those numbers. The threes and nines look like eights. If you still need help identifying them you can post what you find here.
