you would have to mod it to make it work. its best just to use the golden eagle lsvtec headgasket

You're gonna have to bore out the dowel holes in the gasket. If you can get a machine shop to do it properly then go for it. I think the golden eagles are oem gaskets that are modified anyways. I did mine myself and haven't had problems though.
