Post re: gen-V heads on Gen-IV block?

well, the car is a 32 ford roadster, it sees duty on weekends and street race shootouts where i plan to embaress the hogh boost integras, imprezas and other jap crap.

the engine is as of now a 1970 steel crank 454, #512 casting block, 113cc chamber Ovalport heads, torker 2-o intake 850DP carb and headders, cam is 244@.050 ls 110,

i was planning on upgradeing the motor with a set of aforementioned heads, that i can pic up for 500 usd, 2.25/1.88 stainless valves

but is it possible to mount the gen 5 heads on a gen 4 block with the waterpassage modifications the guy mentioned??
