As long as we have the guide rail we can use the LS1 or LS7 style rockers?

Pretty sure you use the LS7 rocker because the intake is an offset rocker.

from what i looked at, the 6.0L gaskets will work just fine with them.

of course, my engine isnt together yet to know for sure, but everything seems to line up just fine..

other than being designed for the larger bore...any reason (physically) these wouldnt work on a LS1/6 block?

if you weld up the chambers and the valve seat area, machine the deck flat again and recut the valve seats for smaller valves so it fits in the bore.... yea they'll fit on there and work.

sounds like alot of work, but thats what i intended on doing, right up until i started pricing 6.0L shortblocks.... it would be cheaper for me to buy a stock shortblock then it is for me to modify the heads for the LS1.. but if i could weld and machine them myself, the opposite would be true.
