Block interchange question
Hey Fellow C4 owners, I have a block question.. I have aquired a 1970 0.10 high nickel small block chevy block.. it has had all machine work done stock bore, and is ready for a build. My question is will all the 1987 parts (heads,intake,water pump) off my 1987 L98 work with this block. I believe it being a one piece crank seal instead of a two piece which I believe I have now,, would not matter. Qoes anyone know if I can use a older block with my 1987 parts ?? thanks, gary

ALSO, this may or may not be an issue, but in CA and other states with similar smog laws, later engine into earlier car okay, but earlier engine into later car? NO. Oh wait, I see you're in Florida. Feel free to ignore this post (except the oil pan part).
