It should work fine, whats it look like? Only difference with those motors are firing order, heads (i think), and non-HOs is a non roller motor

I think the non ho were on backward, but it is still the exact same upper and lower intake. The runners all line up, so it doesn't matter which way you bolt the upper to the lower.

what do you mean backwards, would i put it on the same way as the one i have on now?
