Don't have a set to measure. Supposedly they are the same basic casting as the EJ25D heads, but with larger ports. There is a good thread on Nasioc, butI figured I'd throw these up here because these are the commonly discussed heads on LC.

EJ20K is V3 and V4 WRX/STI.

EJ20H is Early twin Turbo Legacy. I *think* EJ20H is very close to EJ20G WRX heads.

Thanks jake. I guess you didn't notice but I sent you 2 pms about which heads they were and the differences between the heads but never got a response. That was a while ago.
