Its not possible to tell without measuring. Stock LS6 heads start as 65cc chambers. figure every .007 you mill drops the chamber volume by 1 cc. Without measuring, you cant tell how much space you have P to V. Use this page to calculate your SCR / DCR: http://www.kb-silvolite.com/calc.php?action=comp

i have a 228/230 cam with stock ls6 heads milled .018 and a cometic .045 gasket.I have .085" intake clearance and .135" exhaust,stock block etc..you should be fine,but check it because if your cam is not degreed or has a lot of advance ground in then you might be close on the intake..I have a 112 lsa with 2 * advance
