Actually, the cleveland heads are pretty darn close. I made the mistake of getting NAPA gaskets and they're...not like a plate with holes, theyre like little metal rings where the stock coolant ports and cylinders are and this is connected by gasket material. Problem is it unshrouds two of the heads' coolant ports so I would need to goop these anyway.

When you said "noooooo, God nooooo!", why not? RTV is strong as hell. There wouldnt be a weakpoint like with a gasket since it would now be metal on metal held together with bolts instead of some cradboardlike stuff.

BTW All the bolt holes line up just fine. I'll need to port my intake to have oval ports and port my headers to match the crazy oval ports but it's all under control!
