OK, the easy part, I have a '96 4.3LX 4bbl. I would like to be certain which heads are on this engine. Here is what I know, the valve covers are stamped Vortec(I know this means nothing), The original spark plugs were AC MR43T's with a reach of .460" and the intake manifold has six bolts per side for a total of twelve.
Here is what I think I know, IM's used with the vortec heads only have four bolts per side (total of eight) and use spark plugs with a reach of .708"
Is this correct, and do I have the older style heads???
