The heads will be up for grabs for sure. They have a 3 angle valve job and will not come with springs, but they are good heads. I had them checked out and resurfaced when I put them on. I think he said he shaved .003 off of them, just enough to give a new gaslet surface.

I'm thinking if I shave the heads, there will be some clearance issues with that cam, but I'm not sure.

How did you like the 6.0 heads and cam with the boost? I was considering that for my truck hoping it would get me to 500rwhp with 10-12 lbs on the 5.3. Maybe just a 50 shot to push me over the edge.

Keep in mind I'm still in a small town, so I still got 99% of the trucks whooped. The heads are what's killing me N/A. I should be around 8.5-8.25:1 CR. That's brutal! The heads flow like a mother, that's why the big improvement with the boost! That combo was killer with 9psi. I couldn't imagine 12 psi on them.

I have a feeling the cam will be going to my buddy, but I'll let ya'll know if it's not.

well when there cheap there cheap lol, damn garage sale shoppers, oh yeah when you go back to stock make sure you have a buddy with all the stock parts laying around so you don't have to shop around for them or lose it in the trade.

Flyer are you going to the thunder shootout?
