yea, you should be able to find some LT1 heads pretty easily… check around the junkyards even… jj’s… and ebay… no one really has much of an interest in the LT1 anymore it doesnt seem…  
also, are you looking for a firebird head (alluminum) or an impala head or a caprice head (both iron i believe)… good information to have handy when looking for them

Buy some used ones and send them out to get ported/polished. And get a better cam. And injectors. And valvetrain. And stall. And tune. And throttle body. And headers. Etc. 🙂

hey hey hey dont be bashing the LT1 shes still a fighter lol

Nahh its a 94 formula firebird. and id like to keep the LT1 as lame as it sounds, as stated not many people keep them going and I’d like to be semi original with the bird so i just wnana build up the LT1 but for the time being i just need the set of heads( kinda sad not having it running). I plan on getting another set of heads and going from there with the port and polish and build up. I mean i am not trying to go outrageous with horsepower when i build it, I’d be more then happy to hit mid to high 300.

I don’t think it’s worth the money. Better off getting the stock heads ported. And it’s going to be hard to find LT4 intake manifolds because they quit making them.

Here’s what a few sold for new.

Sometimes you can find them for sale used on [CamaroZ28.com](http://CamaroZ28.com).

I’ve got an LE2 cam & Comp springs/retainers for sale that would go good with them!
