Hello there, back after a longish pause in building due to all sorts of stuff

Is it possible/adviseable to convert an older Chevy engine (Gen I) to reverse flow cooling? As reverse flow cooling seems to be the better choice for this style of engine and I'm planning to do a total rebuild of my engine anyway I thought I might as well change the flowdirection. A bit of money is on hand.

The engine is in a daily driver truck, got 492 heads with big valves on it, Edelbrock intake and 600cfm carb, a Comp Cams Extreme Energy cam (mild roller), and headers. Flat top hyper Pistons.

I'm not looking for power, but I'm planning on running it with LPG (autogas), so I'm looking to raise the CR a bit (to around 10.5-11, LPG has 110 octane).

Is there an "easy" way to convert the flow direction? As it's a 28 year old car I'm not going to put an LT1 in it
But will putting on a reverse drive water pump, changing the thermostat and swapping the hoses be enough? I have a machine shop and can build my own parts, like a thermostat-housing for an outlet-thermostat after the water pump...

Has anybody tried this?

Thanks a lot,

Max
