Check  the pistons. If they are domed (not flat) you will need to change
them to  flat to use standard heads. I think the domed pistons hit regular
heads. If  not, the compression ratio will be very high. Super super premium
may be  necessary.

As long as you have the heads off, whyn't you check the thickness of the  
head gasket?  Thicker head gaskets can be gotten from Clark's or Corvair  
Underground in various thicknesses so you can go thicker and avoid hitting the  heads 
with the pistons.
