Default Heads and cam swap, head ideas?

Fixing to get a nnbs, 315hp 5.3 single cab or 367hp 6.0 ext cab. First thing on the list other than bolt ons is heads and cam. What is a good set of heads for say a 224/224 and thats not going to break my wallet?? Thanks

Talk to Richard at WCCH, he has some nice heads for the 5.3's. tdrumm used to have a set of WCCH StageI's on his 5.3 with a Vinci 210/218 cam and his truck ran like a raped ape.

I wish 315HP stock came on mine. Honestly, I just wanna be faster than most, not all. Plus, I hope to see that Tundra like I did yrs ago. He has 4wd & it's raining, & I'm on bald rears. He thinks he's King ****. Even if I'm outmatched in HP, I'd give it a go in dry. Never saw him again tho.

I say give Richard at WCCH a call and work something out with him! as far as cam choice goes, it all depends on what truck you end up getting and where you want your power at

Who is this Richard guy and how do i get ahold to him??? Im in south korea now at work and will be home truck shopping in 3 weeks!! The best deal will determine what i go with, im really leaning on the 6.0 vmax.. And as far as how fast i want to go well id like to be in the high 12 low 13 range on the motor and spray the house down and see some 11s.

West Coast Cylinder Heads, they're a sponsor here, and the customer service is second to none. I have a set of their StageII 317's waiting to go on my LQ9. I've called and talked to Richard numerous times and he's always taken the time to answer all of my questions and give me more knowledge than I expected. In short, he knows his **** and he's willing to help
