Doesn't matter which head goes on which side, unless only one end of the head has accessory holes. Some heads have accessory holes on both ends, some heads only have them on one end.

Just check each head and make sure that they are the same. As long as everything is the same, tjey will fit just fine. I have built several 350's over the years, and never had a problem.
