Default ----F/S Freshly Ported and Polished 5.3 Heads----

As the title says I have a set of freshly ported and polished 5.3 (862 castings) for sale. A customer traded them in on a set of my ported/milled LS6 heads. I choose not to rework any cylinder heads that have been previously ported so just trying to get my money back from the partial trade. I put them on my superflow flow bench and they were 35+CFM at .600 lift compaired to a stock 5.3 head so would make for a great budget head on a 5.3 or 4.8 truck. The heads come with the stock GM 5.3 valves. -Sorry no valve springs- willing to take $425 and if you have a set of STOCK LS1 or 5.3 heads and exchange them I will let them go for $350

Correct these where not done by me. The ports do look really nice .I was told they were ported by a local head shop in Houston. I will throw them on the flow bench today and get the flow numbers up.

Just put the heads on the bench and on Intake port 1 flow numbers are

.100 64cfm
.200 136cfm
.300 192cfm
.400 231cfm
.500 242cfm
.600 256cfm

Those numbers are right on what a stock LS6 head flows. These would be great for a budget build with a 5.3 truck because you wouldnt have to sacrifice compression to have a better flowing head.
