#8 cyl is toast and wondering if you can install Gen 1 heads on a Gen 3 block. Can buy new short block cheap! But if alot of work may not end up being so cheap. thanks

Do you by chance have access to a Gen 3 block? If so take a gen 1 head gasket and place it on top. From what I have heard it will work but you might have to perform minor modifications. Not much help, hopefully someone can confirm what actually needs to be done.

Dont count out the gen 2 block, it definitely works and you can still pick them up cheap.
