Default venture cylinder head problems

Hi everyone i hope you can help me.
I have a 2003 Chevy Venture, I warped my cylinder heads due to overheating, cause was a burned electrical wire of my cooling fans which caused it to malfunction.
The problem is here in the Philippines The venture that were exported here came only with a 3.0L LW9 engine made by GM Shanghai which was not available in the US. The Chevy dealer is charging me 2000$ for a set of new head, thats without installation. In the U.S. It came with a 3.4L engine. I made some research and found out that the Chevy Lumina 3.1L came with the same pair of heads. This is based on the picture of my heads and the ones for sale by remanufactured heads supplier.
Now will it be a problem if i installed the Lumina Heads 3.1L on my Venture 3.0L engine?
