Crate motor TPI
I am interested in purchasing this crate motor from GM
http://www.jegs.com/p/GM+Performance/749872/10002/-1
and was wondering if i could swap the TPI right from my 1989 Formula (LB9)? Besides having it tuned is it possible to swap TPI onto vortech heads? I haven't chosen a crate motor yet so if you guys have any suggestions or personal recommendations please let me know.

The intake wont match with the vortech heads. It can be done, but you will need a vortec TPI base.
