Can anyone tell me what heads fit to the G200 other than the Standard OHC, or the Jap-Import DOHC?

I am asuming you are talking about the G200Z. If so the only heads that will fit are the G161Z/G180Z head and the standard head. The twin cam head will not fit.

I mean i know what heads fit... I just have heard from older posts that the Twin Cam G200 is a different design to the SOHC G200. Is this true?

Yes the block is actually an OHV design. And the engine still runs a dummy cam with a gear set on it in the block to halve the speed of the cam chain.

There are other heads you can put on the dohc but they are sohc (G180SS) or ohv heads, but you would go backwards by putting these on.
