The holes for the headbolts are a different size, although they are in the same spots, and the water passages are different. You can make it work, but it's not bolt on.

Why would you ever want to put a 25 head on a 26 block? and If you had both and you already know then why make a post and ask?

So you already knew about the head bolt holes needing done, but didn't mention that when you asked if it would "bolt right up". Also, I miss-spoke. I said water jacket, but I meant the oil feed for the NVCS.
