No you cant swap the 3v heads onto the 2v block.  They wont fit. Nor will the 4V heads.  The max you can go on the stock block is stage 2.  Stage 3 valves are bigger and will hit the cylinderwall on the stock block, you'll have to get a new one.


Why are there people out there with 3v and 4v head swaps then?  It might take a little work, but it definitely can happen.  But if you ask me its not worth the time or money since for much less trouble and for probably less money you can just buy a blower and push more than a NA 3 or 4 valve.



Well its not JUST the heads they swapped, they would have had to do an entire motor swap.  The 4v block is different than the 2v block.  4v heads will not fit on a stock 2v block.

Late to comment- Stay n/a since that's what you really want.  Longtubes with shorty x pipe.  Then do an intake manifold with t/b and plenum.  All that should get you about 30-40 rwhp.

Yeah but then when he wants even MORE power, to beat the next fastest car, all hell have left that would be worthwhile are heads and cams, really.   Might as well wait on the headers till he gets the newer, better flowing heads, with a nice set of cams. Then slap the headers on and call it a day.
