C5R heads in a normal LS1/LS6 engine... It is possible??
I know that in the past, it is too much job and money....
Now with more than 5 years of development, would like to know if it possible to switch the LS1/LS6 heads for the C5R heads!!
Also what intake is the best to use in conjuntion with the C5R heads!
I'm planning to do a conversion in the '99 FRC soon and just finding the best combo!!
Any input would be fine, thanks!!

From what I understand they will work on a 4.125" bore(not sure if it has to be the C5-R block), but you will definately need a custom intake made. Not sure what headers will fit either. If you have the money for the heads, then you should be ok with the rest! ;)

I have a set of C5R heads that are almost done. They are flowing 377/250 in/ex on our Superflow 600 bench. With an exhaust pipe, it is 20-25cfm more. This is a drag race port job.
Please give us a call for details toll free at 866-539-5605 and ask for Wade.
