With enough work, they could be adapted, but why? They won't improve performance, they'll hurt performance.

Re: will these work

Depends on your definition of "work".

Yes they will "bolt up".

OTOH, they'll probably cost around 40 HP on a motor that's already pretty anemic to begin with.

Above all, DO NOT trade in your nice 083s as cores for that chicken s***!!! Swap em if you must, but hold on to your good ones, so you won't be back here in about 3 days posting about "I want my old heads back but the parts store says they already had them melted down".
