083 heads on a Gen1 Goodrwench?

Can I use them on one of those 350's which has a flat tappet cam?

If ok to use them, can I use the spreadbore stock intake that goes on the GW 350?

Of course; the heads don't care what design the interface between the cam & lifters is.

Don't think so, not directly anyway; if memory serves, those motors come with 993 heads, which have the old all-parallel intake bolt arrangement. Might be possible to slot the holes and use angle washers though.
