6.0 heads are cheap and easy to find. Basically they flow like a LS6 head but have larger combustion chambers and alot of guys use these with their stock bottom ends to drop the compression down to around 9.5:1, maybe 9.2:1 depending on the head gaskets and if they have the chambers opened up. they usually go for around $300.

So ya say a patriot performance lq9 head would be my best bet.

My AFR's Are 59cc I would be trying to get the compression down to 9.0 or maybe lower. I can probably do that with a custom piston but its going to be huge money. Unless someone has do it already.
