Yep, trucks and vans got the Gen1 motor, while the cars got the LT1 and L99. His motor is out of a truck, so it's a Gen1 motor.

To the OP, you can put the new heads on the older motor, but you ~might~ need to use the old pushrods as well; I'm not sure if there's a difference in the length between the two. Also, what's your plan for induction? If you're going to run a carb, the intake bolt pattern is different between the heads on the '82 engine vs. the '95 engine, so you'll need a different intake manifold. The exhaust should bolt up just fine.
