LT1 Block Options?
Is there a way of using a good block with the LT1 reverse cooling heads?

Re: LT1 Block Options?
Karl,
I am sure you could do it with a little creative plumbing. I have 4 LT1 blocks in the shop right now so I will try to take a look at one next to a traditional 350 block and see what might be do-able.

Re: LT1 Block Options?
There were some Bowtie LT-1 blocks made by GM. Probably near impossible now to find one but they did make them and I took delivery of 1 for someone else.
They made them in std bores and some with a 4.125 bore I think that some engine builders probably were able to modify a std Bowtie block to work.....

Re: LT1 Block Options?
Can you use the LT(gen 2) block cam and lifter in the Gen 1 blocks?

Re: LT1 Block Options?
Yes you can as long as there is provisions for the cam retainer plate
