Head compatibility

Hi, does anyone know if a naturally aspirated head will work with turbo'd engine? I have an '82 300CD which I am pulling the head off of to replace a broken valve guide, I spoke to the guy at the machine shop who said that he had a head from a non-turbo engine that has had a complete valve job, the owner never picked it up. The casting number of the head at the shop is 6170160301.
