not a lot ,carb heads and efi heads differ in that efi have a notch in inlet ports,also check thickness of head as a head used with a composite gasket rather than steel is in effect lifting valve away from cam and hyd tappets need to be within their tolerances

Also no outer row of head-bolt holes in the later heads.

Think outside, no box required.

Yes what Noreseman say's.
not that the outer bolts are needed, they unevenly load the head and allow a slight gasket leak into the valley..
I personally torque them to 25lb/ft and do the "normal" for the other bolts.
