ToplessZ Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 Well I got a deal on a set of SR Torquer heads but Im now selling them and going to go a different route. Im not sure if these heads were the post or pre 1987 heads. My question is are the post 87 heads compatible with the pre 87 blocks and vica versa. What was the difference other than the centerbolt valve covers? Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 The center intake manifold bolts are at a different angle on the 87 and up motors. The heads will work on any of the blocks with the right intake, at least in general. 2.02/1.6 valves don't work with sub 4" bores and things like that.

ToplessZ Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 Yeah I was there earlier unless im missing something It didnt say if there was a casting number to look for that would let me know if these heads where for a pre 87 small block or a later one. If anyone else knows let me know. Thanks denny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denny411 Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 The late"style" heads should have the center intake bolts at a different angle. They should also have small threaded holes between some of the rockers for center bolt valve covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
