what years are you talking about?
They did change the way the lower intake gasket mates up to the block.. the newer blocks have guide pins.. nothign that will really hinder assembly though.. my 97 does not have guide pins..
The guide pins help that little blue gasket that goes across teh block underneath the lower intake. There is one in front and one in back.Keith - Chicago<br /><a href=\"http://www.hptuners.com\" target=\"_blank\">HP Tuners - PCM Reprogramming</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.dxsoftware.com/magnus/\" target=\"_blank\">97 Firebird V6 to LS1 swap</a><br /><b>V8 9.967@132.78</b> 1.322 60\' NA Heads/Cam<br /><b>V8 10.295@128.48</b> 1.363 60\' NA Cam Only<br /><b>V8 10.987@119.31</b> 1.422 60\' NA Stock Internals<br /><b>V6 13.674@98.22</b> NA<br /><b>V6 12.394@104.91</b> N20 100HP -
i was wondering if , because i have a 96 3.8 camaro, if i could go to a junkyard and get an older block and start building it up. would it be possible to go older block rebuilt and still bolt new heads on it or has the blocks changed since the 70s and 80s.96 Camaro 3.8 A4 Basemodel: 8 mm wires, Shift Kit, Hollowed <br />Cat(o2 sims), RKSport exhaust, IAT 5.6K resistor, Home Depot CAI<br />>>>15.375 @ 89.27<<<NEW BEST TIME <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/552491\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/552491</a>Comment
