As long as you have the matching valve cover and water manifold for the tall head it will bolt right up. Same push rods and valve train in either head. Kip

Stands are different but since you bought a whole head....I imagine it has everything you need...so all you gotta do is bolt it to your engine.

The push rods are the same...the difference is in the rocker arm stand height (shorter stand for the taller head). The head will bolt right on and you will need the shorter valve cover. Rick
