Milled heads with stock cam? Can I do it?
I have a set of LS3 heads that have been milled .030". They are for a build I'm working on, but I want to put a stock LQ9 in the car to get it going. This is a carburated build. The LS3 heads have .650" lift springs on them. Will this work with the stock LQ9 cam?
I wanted to do it this way so I don't have to buy another intake. If it would be best to use the stock 317 heads I can just buy a cathedral Victor Jr.
Thanks

As stated above, I'm trying to get a temporary engine in my car. It would be more cost effective to put my heads on it as I'll only be out some time and a set of head gaskets.
Didn't know if it would perform a little better with the LS3 heads since the stock cam is in place.

Don't really know how that statement is supposed to help here. Are you suggesting I put a cam in the LQ9 also?
