68 block, 87 head?
I just cant seem to do anything the easy way...
I have a 68 300-6 that I am replacing the head on. I bought a head from '87 and it is on its way. I have new pushrods and lifters, and i have rocker arms that will fit on a head from 68. Now, what is the difference in rocker arms and studs from a 68 to an 87? will it be possible for me to use the rocker arms made for the 68? Of course i'd rathed use rocker arms I already have then buy more.... if they won't fit i have a set of 12 wolverine rocker arms for sale.
Also, this head has "air injection" or something like that for smog... I don't need that stuff on my 68, so what are these, where are these, and what can i use to block them off?
Your knowledge is much, much appreciated!
