      No, unfortunately. That would be cool, but it's been tried and it's a no-go. Unless somebody has been incredibly creative. The oiling/coolant supply is special for the TDC/DOHC heads. Furthermore, there are lifters in the bowtie block - you'd have to find a way to seal them off or something.

        thought as much, was just kind of confused by the post above me harping the joys of the bowtie block under "dohc performance"

          I actually installed the dohc heads on my bowtie block and took pics of it to show the relation between the two.

          pics can be seen at
