Might be a dumb question, but do you have to have these converted to reverse cooling?

I think thats supposed to mean that its Standard cooling for an LT1 and does NOT have to be converted to reverse "style" cooling for the LT1.

The 230cc head is not a reverse style cooling head.

Killing me every time! Will this CNC work on your LT1 casting?

Between the huge chambers and no LT1 offering. I under stand the no LT1 offering but why such huge chambers all the time? This has kept me from buying and recomending this product I am very sorry to say. It is a quality product but running pop up pistons on the street went out decades ago

The conversion is like $500, really not that bad for a huge cc head.
