You could get close, a block would be better because with a head you dont know where the cylinder bores are in relation to the bolt holes. Curt just posted the bolt hole coordinates for me(us)for the 236/261, if he can give me the #1 cylinder reference to the
X0Y0 location, its a done deal. Its that easy. Dont worry Beater, Im going to do a torque plate for a GMC too,I just need to find a block for one....
