The 5.7 heads will work if they have the smaller 184 intake valves . Or you will have to bore the block over to get the 194 ,200,or 202 intake valves to fit into the cylinder if not it will lock it up when the valve opens and hits the edge of the block

Will 1996-1999 vortec heads work on my 1972 350 engine?
Short answer is yes. But unless you use the same model intake you will have to "hog out" the center bolt holes on the manifold. This is due to the angle of the bolts. With the holes slotted or elongated it will still seal fine. I owned a '78 Chevy PU with this mod done to it with no problems. buy edelbrock intake and u'll make good power with those heads.

It can be done either way, you can request a long (complete) or short block (minus heads).
