2011 has LS3 style heads. Your 99 has cathedral style heads. That only one of the issues...

Yes you are rigth man. I saw it long time ago and it looked like catedral design but now i took look again and use cathedral gaskets but and the port is not exactly scaure but not fit the catedral design .

Now can i use LS3 heads on a Lq9 motor?
