You could always ask to take a test drive. I originally misread your post. I thought you wanted to put an "X" cam on a stock head engine.
Whoever installed that cam, had to of had the pistons notched.
I hope someone wouldn't have gone through all that trouble getting pistons notched and yet retain the stock heads or at least not have mods done to them like port work and larger valves.
Go take a test drive and see if you can get a good look at the heads to see if maybe they are aftermarket or not.
