Ledphoot Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 I've always used old school parts so I'm lost on this one. Can you use the newer LT1 reverse flow heads on an older sbc block or do you have to modify the cooling system or ???? I am looking at the 94-96ish heads and wanted a cheap aluminum swap.

defrag010 Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 no, if you do the extra coolant passages on the heads will dump coolant right into your lifter valley. Also, you will have to use the coolant ports on the front of the head as the crossover, because the LT1 heads don't have the crossover in the manifold. read this thread and do everything he does: http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/tpi/178262-completed-lt1-heads-gen1.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
