Talk to me about LS heads So I'm new to the LS game. I'm putting the final touches on a LS2 into a '67 Firebird swap.
Added coolant and it's leaking from the first header bolt hole on the drivers side. I'm almost sure I must have done while drilling out a broken manifold bolt.
I say almost sure because I discovered the broken bolt after I had the engine home. Not sure if the damage was done, but more than likely I did it.
So, first any chance my local engine shop can repair it?
Second, if I go looking for a replacement or replacement set which heads interchange with 243's?
Are the 243's worth trying to get repaired?
Thanks

I was wondering the same thing... Maybe some thread sealant. And the ls3/l92 heads would be the way to go, like the guy above said, if your gonna swap it out but you need to get a different intake too.

yup different intake, but they can be had for less than $280 with injectors and fuel rails on Ebay.
