What do I have to look for when using pontiac heads that oil the rockers through the studs on a gto engine that uses pushrod oiled rockers, or vise versa? Do I have to use different head gaskets? What about different year blocks such as a 1970 block and 66 heads?

I think that Pontiac stopped using stud oiling at the end of 62, possibly some 63's were stud oiled, I believe that all 64 and up are pushrod oiled.
