worked 862 casting heads....who has em'
I have a set of stock 862 5.3 heads, that I was thinking about getting them worked by a local guy that I have heard good things about. I wanted to know who has had a set worked over, p&p, larger valves, milled ect? what should I get done, and what should I stay away from? stock 5.3 with all bolt-ons, lt's,tsp220,4.10's,sst3600,maybe a tr224 in the works soon. I talked with the guy and he said to clean,bowl work, port work, larger stock 2.00 intake valves and a .020 mill was $600. I want more compression, tq/hp, ect. I like my broad tq curve. also going with a .040 head gasket. anyone got a compression calc. for this setup? thanks
