For 600 I'd put them on and see what it gains you... If it doesn't work out then swap something else on... Simple.

Well I got the heads and I'm gunna take them to have them checked if anything needs to be changed (seals,guides) but what I'm wondering is my compression ratio with them stock 64cc ? From what I've read with stock head gaskets it would put me at like 10.5? Cuz 64cc on a lq9 puts it at 11to1? I'm just wondering if they will need to be milled any while I'm at it cuz I want 10.5 to 1

do you know who ported the heads? if it was a decent port job, you will definately gain power.

do yourself a favor and pay patric g to spec you a cam. he can give input on how to achieve 10.5:1. it's only 25$ and you get that money back if you order the cam through his buddy because it ends up being 25 cheaper than comp.
