Bolts straight on, no mods needed - just need the appropriate head gasket to suit to what pistons and deck height your running in the CDB and to match the combustion chamber volume of the heads.

An educated guess (without measuring the dry build and voluming the heads) would be Cosworth 1.1mm multi layer steel head gaskets to give you a static CR of around 8.3:1
