If you can get 04 cobra heads to bolt up to an LS1, you would have no problem getting LT1 heads to fit.

They are two different styles of engines. Could never happen. Ever.







No, never.

From what I have researched, L92 heads should only be used on blocks with a 4.00" bore and larger. It has to do with the size/design of the combustion chamber and valve size.

But I am certainly looking into it further

The L92's are AMAZING heads!!!!!!
