If you are handy at welding aluminum it should be no great deal, other than the amount of time to do all the work - other people have already done this conversion when their racing class restricted them to the use of "production" car cylinder heads.
All you need to do is weld plate aluminum in the reverse flow passages and open up the traditional small block cooling passages. Your TPI intake manifold passages will need some massaging to line up with the raised roof/runner of the LT1.
