Is There A Diference And Will Vortec Heads Work With My L98 Block And An Aftermarket Intake? Which Is Better? I Want To Replace The Heads, Intake And Cam. I Am Looking At The Performer Package From Edelbrock With The High Flow Runners And Matching Intake But It Doesnt Have Alot Of Info On The Difference In Heads.

 

Avoid the Edelbrock baseplate at all costs! Yes you can put vortec heads on a L98 block. Get the Sloggen Dickys complete set up. $1200- heads, a good TPI vortec intake, ARP bolts and all gaskets.

 

you need an intake specifically for the Vortec heads. Either the SDPC TPI base or a carbed intake for the heads.

btw, I've got a set of vortecs for sale. With carbed intake, valve covers, roller rockers, manley valves, screw in studs, guidelplates and 5 angle valve job. Brand new for $900
