won't know till you pull the 8v head and see what pistons are in your motor.

100% chance of bending 50% of the valves if you have the 8v pistons

haha when i was ghetto broke i did this one. take a dremel and make your own valve pockets on the piston. the one i did is still running and probably has 45xxx miles on it since. been boosted once too, not for very long but it was. and the other one i did lasted pretty long but it was sold with the car and never saw it again. takes about two hours but if your that desperate then go for it. it will work tho. i have proved it.
