Thanks.

They will bolt on and should clear but they will not fit any gen III intakes so you need the aussie L76 or a L92 if you can find one.

My first step is the LQ4, then the L92 heads, and L76 intake.
Quik, how far are you from being completed? What kind of cam do they perfer?

Thanks.

i need to push a few parts first to help fund the final motor steps. then need to find a good T56 core then off to get custom headers and exhaust. so probably feb im hoping since winter is here

I don't think the valves on the L92 head will fit in your bore. It needs to be 4" or larger unless I am mistaken.
