LT1 heads on reg. 350
A friend of mine is very interested in putting LT1 heads on an early 350. I've heard it's do-able and I've heard it's not. What's the scoop?

Re: LT1 heads on reg. 350 (bogus)
Manifold is no problem ,GMPP for one make one for a carb on LT1 heads with dist mount (P/n2450592).
However LT1 is reverse flow cooling so no provision for water outlet on manifold.Same problem arises with heads on block not intended for reverse flow cooling.If it can be done will require some reworking of water holes in head to suit early block.
