You cant use anything but maybe your lifters and cam. Oil pan is different, gear drive and cover, The cam is most likely raised witch is good because running a crank that big you should not have to clearance your rods to clear the cam and the block to clear the rods. Oiling system is way better. If you kick a rod on the left side you dont have to fix an oil passage. Head studs are 9/16 not 1/2. My recommendation to you is to find a newer block than a 92 or 96. Parts can be very hard to find as they dont make parts for them anymore.

 

did AJ go out of business
WTF

 

Nope, I needed caps for a 92 and was told that they quit making them years ago by rodeck and a guy at AJ's. I posted hear that I needed a set of main caps and was lucky to have one person reply. His block was junk but had good caps still. I was told the same goes for the 96. Its just like the fat head 3. They quit making parts for them. Of coarse for a fee they can remake what ever you want but by then you could have had the new stuff. Correct me if im wrong on this because I cant find new parts for them.
