Re: block differences???
So long as you are not talking about LSX engines physically nothing.
Vortec engines have a different intake port shape and intake manifold with only 8 bolts but the Vortec top end will bolt on to reg SBC blocks
LT1/LT4 blocks are physically identical to GEN I SBC's but have different heads and coolant passages in the block,
LTX internals fit reg SBC but bolt on parts don't. Have dist at front and use a unique water pump.
