Search blows, Need help on heads

Ok, can i get 86 heads and put them on my car w/o modification to the BLOCK.
If yes then...
next question... can i modify my 87 intake to fit the 86 heads? Any cons to doing this? woudl i be better off to get an 86 base? would there be any issues with an 86 base on a roller block? Any cons to putting 86 intake on roller block? thank you guys

Yes, you can put 86 heads on a roller block without modifications to the block or heads.

Yes, the intake can be modified to work with the older style heads, the center 4 intake holes need to be opened up. Only "con" would be if you went crazy and ruined the base.

It would be easier and less work to use an older style base.

You could upgrade the base ($$) to Accel, etc, which is already set to run either style heads.
