Is it possible???

If you havent heard Alex (TransAm4Life) is in Puerto Rico and he got hold of a 400 block and called me up to ask a question, and that is...

Can you convert an LT1 system to work with a 400 block???

...lol typical...

No, or at least not without a lot of welding, drilling, and grinding.

The intake, yes, the heads, no. His name is John Millican, he knows who I am and he's a good guy! If I didn't have vortec heads I'd have an Lt1 intake on my engine.

Is the 400 a 2-bolt main or 4? Also a short block is just a rotating assembly, no heads, intake, or waterpump. Long block has the heads, intake, and waterpump.
Got any more specs on the engines?
