So my L98 blew up, and I'm looking into swapping in a GM Goodwrench 350 long block with Vortec heads, and putting all my existing TPI parts and intake back on...but was wondering if the stock L98 exhaust manifolds and intake will work with the Vortec heads of the crate motor?

The exhaust manifolds should fit. The intake manifold will not.

Exhaust wil work, but the intake ports are taller on Vortec you you'll need them welded taller then match port to gasket, the front and rear 4 intake bolt holes are drilled straight up on vortec heads, but you can have those welded and then drilled properly to.. It will bes ome work but worthwhile to do.
