yes ,I have change one out with a old 350 it had lot more power . I used the old heads to with vortec intake you have to slot the four bolt holes .but it will work.
Regardless of the block, you have to use Vortec heads to use a Vortec intake.
no the vortec is faster
No it is not.
Mounted on top of the block.
Because that is when GM went to the first generation Vortec heads, and, they overcame injection lean issues.
the vortec block and heads were introduced in late 1995 but actual vortec motor started coming in vehicles in 1996
you can as long as you use your TBI heads if you want to use the vortec heads with TBI you will need a special intake manifold or a carb manifold with a adapter to mount your throttle body to the carb manifold heres some more info TBI heads will mount to the vortec block TBI intake manifold has 12 bolts vortec intake manifold has 8 bolts
The heads will fit the block, but the vortec intake manifold will not bolt to the old style heads.
no
NO. The 86 is not a roller block.
== ==
No they will not.
