They will need to be cleaned by a shop and I would suggest replacing hte springs. They are not warped and all the valves are in tact.

You will have to change your intake. The angle is different.

I'll have to check the bolt holes. Vortec motors started before the 5.3 was introduced. 266, 305 and 350 came in vortec.

indeed so mine is just the pre vortec motor but ive seen people put the vortec heads right in there imnot not sure on the intake fitment but maybe a aftermarket intake would really set those vortecs off.
