Vortec head ?'s

Hey. I need to know the casting numbers and/or names of vehicles that had vortech heads, so I can scour junkyards looking for a deal. They will be going on fancied up 400 that is realy a 370-something, so I'll need the info for the larger engines.

Also, did any car's come with aluminum vortec heads stock?
Finally, will heads off of the LS1 style engines fit on an older 400 block?

Thanx,
Chris

96-up trucks with 350; you don't want the "305 Vortec" ones

No aluminum ones

No the LS1 style heads will not fit any Gen 1 SBC
