if youre thinking of just swapping the head you might as well do a full GTE swap. the intake manifold and the exhaust manifolds will not bolt up.

so you may want to just change that headgasket and be done with it or be ready to spend some big coin

should go the other way around. keep the head and get a gte bottom end.
