so you have a 1G and you're wondering if they put another 1g head on there? i'm pretty sure they wouldn't go through the trouble of putting a 2g head on.
 
yea, I'm almost positive its a 1g head...look at the thermostat housing to make sure.

Also, its a PITA to put a 95-96 head on a 1g...you gotta modify it for the CAS
