I have a 1st gen 12v, i want to build this truck for some decent power and a buddy of mine that has a '01 24v, and idk whether he was yankin my chain, but he told me to put a 24v head on the 12v block. is that even a possibility? without sounding too dumb i was jsut curious if anybody has heard anything like that before. thanks for any help

 

Yes you can do it.... quite a few ppl do it actually..

 

wow.. does everything bolt up the same in terms of bolting the head to the block? im sure it lets the engine breathe better being a 24v as opposed to a 12v.. but what other advantages are there to this setup?

 

That is the advantage getting more air in and more exhaust out.

 

Thats it.... and it seems that i have heard somewhere that someone actually measured the difference of the amount of air moved between the 2 different heads and it wasn';t really all that much.... maybe i am wrong though..

 

for the money you will spend build your 12V head. port polish fire ring ect. you will gain -some- flow but for the money its just about a waste. new injector lines ect ect. dont do it unless you wanna brag about having a 24v head. PORT YOURS way better mod
