Default LQ9 Heads

Would it be better to get a set of LQ9 heads done, or have my stock LS1's done? I'm planning on running a cam in the 230-240 range w/ a stock bottom end. I was going to build a motor, but the rotating assembly I have won't work Makes me mad, but oh well, I'm going to continue w/ my orig. plan and do H/C. To save money, I'm just going to get either of the pair of heads I have done. Any suggestions?

I have a 6.0 out of an 02 suburban and w/e heads are on it I was going to use, I thought they were LQ9 but I haven't looked at them yet. The rotating assembly I have won't work b/c the crank is a gen I/II sbc, and of course my motor is a gen III.

So what is the difference between the LQ4 and LQ9 heads? They are both the 317 casting correct?
