Furthermore, you'll be able to race Memorial Day Weekend for $5,000 plus contingencies for an entry fee that's $105 dollars less! Reading another thread here about the aluminum cylinder heads being approved now for Stock/Super Stock, makes me wonder if that rule change will allow me to use the OEM ('87 & newer) aluminum cylinder heads that 173c.i. V6's came with on my Cavalier? For some reason, I doubt it!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ED, and see you next year???
Nope Gary the heads do not interchange. The aluminum head is very different and uses a different intake and injection system. I ran those 2.8's in FWD in the Caddy for 20 years. Jim
