Yep, got them on mine! If it has the molded in boss, you can cut it off with an angle grinder and a cutoff wheel.
Thing is, if you run the heat sheilds, you might have a problem with mounting them up. The Vortec heads are about 1/2" taller
Main question is...do you run gaskets or not...big debate floating around the boards. I don't, I am just using copper shield. Also, I think the factory locking plates will work best to mount your manifolds, no more loose bolts that create leaks
Don't forget you need a new intake, although they make a dual pattern bolt, for the early intakes, the runners are about 3/8" short for the earlier intakes
