will the block from a 16V motor work with a 86 8V head?

meaning is the head the only thing differ on these engines? bore size and everything else the same?

I believe it depends on the year there are 2.5l 3.0L but i am sure you already know this. From what i understand that basic block is the same. Sorry I cannot directly answer you question but i will look it up in the morning.
