Not to mention that they're for a SBC and not an LT1. They'd have to be converted to reverse flow cooling.

You really wouldn't be able to make good use of those without a larger solid roller with a high lift, not to mention that the very large intake runner size/cross section will put a hurting on any velocity down low.

And you have to have custom headers. Look at them exhaust ports! He's got them for auction too so you'd have to bid on them as well.

Why wouldnt they fit? They would have to be converted to reverse flow as mentioned before, but they would fit fine

I was talking about the headers. They look like something out of a sprint car or something. Those heads have that "spreadbore" exhaust port or whatever.
