Default 317 heads on my 01 LS1 trans am

I have a very nice, almost new, complete set of 317 heads laying around here and was wondering if it would be worth putting them on my car. I have a guy that will polish the chambers, ports and work the pockets and mill them for $300. I also have a new set of 918 springs for my future cam install. Would it be worth the trouble or should I buy a set from a sponser?

Up to you. They're a bigger bore (4.000 rather than 3.898) which leaves more room for detonation and will lower your static CR. I'm not sure the little extra flow would be worth it. I would sell those to get some money and buy a set of worked LS6 heads from a sponsor. My .02.
