LS6 243 heads on an LQ4
Friend has a set of worked LS6 heads. They are ported, valve job, unmilled, Comp 921's, titanium retainers... Hes looking to sell them. Hes dumb and I was gonna offer him an absurdly low amount of money for them. Im not too familiar with the LS6 heads other than the 317 were modeled after them. Was gonna see what you guys thought. The smaller 66cc chamber will bring my CR up a bit. Be worth the swap??

Company have good or bad rep?
You could take some pics and send them off to a company who does good work... Ask for their assessment.
Up to you, I just wouldn't waste my time on a crappy port job.

LS6 heads have a ~64cc chamber....it'll take CR to ~10.6:1, also the stock valves in the 243 heads require a different length pushrod to correct valvetrain geometry when used with a non-LS6 cam, this can be corrected by swapping over to the valves you have in the truck now.
