Hey all, Ive got a 98 k1500 4x4 5.7 vortec, motor took a crap and I am wondering if an older shortblock can be put in there. I know that The vortec motor is externally balanced and If i am not mistaken the older ones are internal. What are my options here. Can one just swap over the heads and intake and all the vortec stuff to an older block. Thanks for the help.
