hmm not really sure if its a good deal or not cause i've never seen any flow numbers on those heads but i'd assume it is.. and yes they should bolt right up.. could be wrong tho..

Actually, a good set of STOCK L98 Alum Vette heads go for an easy $300-400. Depending on who did the porting etc, sounds like a decent deal.


And the intakes AREN'T different. The L98 alum heads have the same angle intake bolts as '86 and OLDER. Only iron heads changed the center intake bolt angle in '87.
