Will a 4 bolt block from a caprice work in my 95 Camaro?

 

I believe that it is the same engine found in Z28's. Should work fine.

 

A caprice motor should be a 2 bolt but GM has done strange things. It also comes with cast heads, not alu... If I recall the motor is rated for 260ish instead of the 280ish that would be found in a camaro. Heads are swapable if you have a set, it wouldn't be a bad idea.

 

Heads should swap...but 4 bolts in a caprice??? I do believe they were 2 bolts unless GM just screwed up on a few which is entirely possible.

 

It is a 4 bolt. So I can use heads off my current 95 Z? Is there no other differences?

 

There is a differnce in the heads but your Z28 heads will bolt right up.

 

He's exactly right there is a difference in the heads and how they'll perform but they will bolt right up.

 

Thanks for the help. I think I will go ahead and buy that block.

 

A Caprice block is a 4-bolt block.

 

Hmmmmm. Since when, and what years?

 

we think alike young Grasshopper....

Geezz, how many Caprice's do you see just sitting in the junk yard

 

Again, I'd like you to offer evidence/proof, which I trust you have. This isn't just more internet hearsay?

 

NOPE. And the pic to prove it
