Hello again!! Need yall's opinion on this. I'm about 2 weeks away from purchasing my turbo kit from Kentucky Turbo. However, I have a stock internal LS-6 motor with LS-1 heads. I did some shopping, but need some guidance on if I need to purchase some heads before the turbo kit. Please advise. Thank yall for input!

You will be fine with the stock heads. If you are running the LS6 cam you are in luck as well. Probably the only thing that might be a issue is your stock valve springs if you have high exhaust back pressure.

I'm doing well then, cbr600rx7. We upgraded the valve springs when we changed the cam a year ago (double spring setup). Thanks for your input. Really appreciate it!!

You should be good to go then. The LS6 cam seams to do a little better on boosted cars vs the LS1 and the double springs should prevent any back pressure issue's.
