Re: 6.0 heads
ok, for the dumb person here, what will the 6.0 heads do for me. i am sure more power but what are we talking here? or is this something that is better for the gas?

Re: 6.0 heads
if you drop a set of stock 6.0 heads on your motor, you'll see maybe 10-15rwhp due to the compression, but if you mill them to 5.3 compression, they will make a lot more power, they flow really good, and have bigger valves. you will see some good torque gains.

Re: 6.0 heads
you'll gain a bit i'm sure just dropping them on, but if you mill them to 5.3 compression then yeah, you're gonna gain more. i think the increased flow, and better port design would do more for power than the slightly lower compression ratio.
