Are all Gen I blocks compatible with l98 intake and heads?
I would like to replace my tired l98 block with one that has four bolt mains and was curious if I could reuse my heads cam and intake, and if not how I would go about getting an EFI setup to replace my TPI. I was also curious if it would likely be necessary to burn a new chip even if I reuse the cam and everything. Thanks.
