Have not worked with 2.3 L(don't like the DI system coil pack),but 2 liter heads are not the same,the early heads have better CFM flow than later heads.Also early heads have a nice clover leaf head chamber over the latter head castings,which are diferent with a raised floor on one of intake ports. Beaware that any aluminum head casting will develop cracks with time ,it a matter of heating and cooling cycles.Try to find a low milage head so cracks won't develop so fast.
