I have a 5.7L with a build shortblock, so L92/LS3 heads are not an option for me. Can my existing aluminum LQ9 heads ported to work with the LS9 supercharger manifold?

I see this as being a pretty cool way to make some cheap reliable HP. It would be pretty cool to have something like this in a DD.
