Sure it has been done, but I would would question why. Why not just stroke out an iron block to 427 or more CI? I guess if you got one pretty cheap it would be worth it.

Except the heads on a LS2 will lower compression if swappedonto an LS1and you still won't have the cubic inches. So in the end you would make less power than a LS1. You might be thinking of the LS6.

No, they are ProLine. Bought them off some kid for $100. I have gotten so many compliments on them. They totally make the car. Just wish they were bigger.
