Head swap
I suppose because I cant find a DIY on head swaps its super easy?
Ive been searching for an hour or more and now im drunk and sidetracking.
I plan on porting my 243's this winter and going to a better (for FI) head gasket like the LS9 and using ARP bolts. Is there a write up on head swaps? I imagine its pretty straight forward. Any one have a parts list I should consider while im in there, like rockers,pushrods,etc...?

This is quite helpful and has pics.

It's for an LS1 but pretty much same procedure as an LS2.
Just verfy the torque specs for your engine.

This is for LS7 but can't be too much different. Maybe the basics will be the same, just torque spec's will need to be checked.
