Lt1 heads on regular block?

Ok I have a block I built up out of a 94 suburban.. I have a weiand stealth intake and edlbrock 650 carb. I ended up with some lt1 heads ( casting number 10128347) so my question is can I use these heads with this set up? Can I just bolt everything on or is there major mods I have to make? If I can is this going to be a good set up? ( going on an airboat) thank you all for your time and expertise.

Yes but you will need to have that intake modified to fit those heads and you will have to block the steampipes on the back of the heads for the reverse cooling. I would just buy some vortec heads and call it the day. Unless you want to keep the lt1 heads for your setup?

Definitely not worth the $$$ to convert those heads.
