SmoothSteve3 Posted January 29, 2004 Report Posted January 29, 2004 Yeah.....so that title sounded a bit wrong......but on to my question- I'm getting ready to do an upper engine rebuild on my 1990 chevy lumina 3.1 MPFI. I already know that 3 different generations of heads exist that would potentially fit my engine, but the 3rd gens. are ruled out since I'd have to get new headers, and all the crap that goes with them. I've got a chance to buy a pair of rebuilt heads for 75 bucks plus shipping. The only hesistation i have, is that their casting number is completely foreign to me: 10154743 Does anybody know if these heads will work for my application, or if they will be an upgrade for my 3.1 lumina? I'm 99.9% sure that my car has the ghetto 1st gen. heads..... Thanks! SmoothSteve Quote
SmoothSteve3 Posted January 30, 2004 Author Report Posted January 30, 2004 hmmm........no takers? Quote
mfewtrail Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 hmmm........no takers? I think that casting number is for 3100 heads but I'm not sure. You don't have "1st gen" heads though, you have Gen II heads. Quote

GP1138 Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 To find out who the biggest assholes are in the W-body family, say the name "Grand Prix" and pronounce the X when you say it. Quote

GnatGoSplat Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 I don't know what heads those are, but if you can find some with casting # 10087511, they have a better shaped combustion chamber. They are what's used on 89 3.1's and all TGP's. Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 say the name "Grand Prix" and pronounce the X when you say it. when i was a really little kid, i used to say it like that! that is until my mom started getting mad at me i was totally clueless joshua Quote
slick Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 I have pretty much the whole top end off a 3100 for sale(minus the pushrods, gaskets, and bolts) for $100 plus shipping. Its the heads, intake plenums, and everything minus what i stated. Also, no EGR. Quote
