I am looking for a set of LT1 heads for cheap. I am going to put them on the shortblock I have, and install it while I rebuild the factory motor. My motor is fine, but its going to take a while due to expense restrictions. This is why I would rather run the shortblock that is in almost new condition.

I want to stick to the stock look. Plus I read an article about saving weight recently!

I'll have to look at the heads I have in the shed.
What are you looking to pay with shipping?
You will want to clean them up and maybe put new seals and springs. IIRC the machine shop charged me a little over $200 to clean a set of heads, change the seals and put on new springs that I provided.

I know I have two sets in there, but one set I'm going to use on my engine build. I'll have to dig them out and take pictures of the extra set. IIRC they are 100K mile stock heads

Thanks for the replies. My plans changed. I am rebuilding the shortblock instead of the factory motor. This way I won't have to switch the motor twice, and I was able to have the 2-bolt converted and prepped at a decent price.

What is the difference between the LT1 heads and L98's?

I think I have a head gasket leaking and would rather get heads before and have them prepped for less downtime.

The LT1 cooling ports are different, because they are a reverse cooling.
