Yes it will make a difference to over all preformance. However they use different intake manifolds compaired to a early model small block chevy.
An Olds engine does not have any parts interchangeable with a Chevy engine.
No, the 1992 Chevy 350 (5.7L) V8 is not a Vortec engine.
That's what should be on it.
no the heads are diffrent
chevy didn't come ouy with vortec heads until the 90's . I'm thinking about 96, so just because they are centerbolt head doesn't mean they are vortec. sorry pal
The difference in horsepower between stock heads and Vortec heads on a 350 Chevy can vary, but typically, upgrading to Vortec heads can yield an increase of around 30 to 50 horsepower. Vortec heads are designed for better airflow and combustion efficiency, which contributes to this gain. The actual increase can depend on the overall engine setup and tuning.
no they will not
No not even close.
No, but if the 96 has the 5.7 Vortec engine then it will have different heads which give it more power. ETA Question: Can I put the '96 vortec heads and intake on the '93 engine? You will need a vortec specific manifold. Edelbrock makes one
Start in the middle and go in a circle
No. Not without switching the cylinder heads. I think it was 89, Chevy came out with the 1st generation Vortec heads, which require a different intake.
yes but the cpi injection in 1998 is way different than chevy's 1993 throttle body system so the whole computer system must be adapted or swapped and the heads are different so you cannot just swap the intakes.
The word 'vortec' is the name of the cylinder heads used in Vortec Model engines in the year 96'+ The engines that use the Vortec cylinder heads are the 4.3L Vortec, 5.0L Vortec, 5.7L Vortec, and 8.1L Vortec. They were only put on Gen I small blocks. If they are any other size Chevy engines and still retain the Vortec name then it's purely a marketing name, the same goes is it is later than a Gen I engine. For example the new 4.2L I6 from GM retains the name Vortec, but it does not actually use Vortec heads as these heads were only made for OHV engines, and the I6 is an OHC engine. The Vortec heads are based on the LT1 and LT4 head after they were discontinued along with their reverse flow cooling design. It is simply an effect made in the head similar to a vortex to better atomize the fuel and air intake charge when entering the combustion chamber, it is not a different type of motor.
