Engine swap

I have a 90 k1500 with a 93 TBI engine. I want to swap it out with a fresh 85 383 short block. My plan is to use the 93 TBI heads, Comp cam computor cam, big block TB, and have a chip burned.
My question is, will the TBi heads bolt to the 85 block?

Re: Engine swap

The heads should bolt to the block, but you will not be able to use a roller cam unless you have a retrofit kit if you are concerned about using a roller vs flat tappet cam
