LT1 Block Options?
 
Is there a way of using a good block with the LT1 reverse cooling heads?

Karl,
I am sure you could do it with a little creative plumbing. I have 4 LT1 blocks in the shop right now so I will try to take a look at one next to a traditional 350 block and see what might be do-able.

There were some Bowtie LT-1 blocks made by GM. Probably near impossible now to find one but they did make them and I took delivery of 1 for someone else.

They made them in std bores and some with a 4.125 bore

I think that some engine builders probably were able to modify a std Bowtie block to work.....

All LT1 stockers out there running OE blocks? 4.080?

Can you use the LT(gen 2) block cam and lifter in the Gen 1 blocks?

Yes you can as long as there is provisions for the cam retainer plate
