(03 6.0) Will TEA heads from an LS1 work?

I am getting an 03 1500 HD tomorrow that belongs to Mike from Vengeance so it has headers, cam, exhaust and etc. I have a friend with some TEA Stage 2 heads I believe, will they work? They came off a 98 Camaro. Also was motor would the 03 1500 HD have the LQ4 ot LQ9? Thanks

It's the LQ4; and the heads will work fine. Depending on the cc's; it should yield a nice increase in compression.

If I calculated it correctly my CR would go from 9.4 to 10.5 with these heads. When swaping them out would I need to change anything else? The truck has some shorty Gipson headers, I have seriously considered swaping them for some long tubes but heard the Gibson headers were pretty good. Also would I need to replace the fuel injectors on the truck to maybe the 8.1 units or what? Thanks
