i have an old 350 4bolt block that i plan on building this summer.
now a buddy has an lt1 engine at my shop and we were talking about maybe useing the heads and Intake manifold.
the thing i want to do is make it a fuel injection style engine, so he's goin to sell me the parts i need if it can be done.

It would require a LOT of work to get them on there. The water jackets are completely different so they'd have to be welded up and re-machined. Much less expensive to go a different direction.

Will the LT1 intake will bolt to conventional SB heads?

they will bolt up if you modify the bolt holes on the intake
But also remember that the intake is a dry intake so coolant doesn't flow through it so you have to re-route coolant.

Also the LT1 heads are reverse flow heads.
