ooookkkkkaaaayyyyy.
How about the brand, or the company you bought them from, perhaps the intake runner volume that they advertised or something?
Or if stock, the casting number, which is stamped below the rocker arms on each head...

Well, usually its cast or inscribed into the head somewhere... usually either on the side, between the exhaust ports (if its cast on) or inscribed into the front machined surface where the alternator would be bolted on.
Also, sometimes there is something cast somewhere under the valve cover. On my cousin's Edelbrock heads (on a Ford 390) it has the Edelbrock "E" logo (looks like a big backwards 3) cast in. Maybe your heads have something there too?
Worst case, you could always check out a few of the manufacturers catlogs and see if you can find a matching part number.

Pictures could really help indentify them. Someone may be able to recognize them for you.
