Anyone running 6.0 liter heads?

Just wondering if the 317 casting would improve flow or is it too much head...lol....no pun intended.

They are basically unmilled z06 heads (similar flow numbers). You will loose power due to less compression (larger chambers).

Lots of guys run them on turbo/blower setups due to the lower compression they help with.

I am going to be using stock 6.0L heads on my 383 build.

Here is a quick comparison I did in Excel between stock LS1, LS6 and 6.0L Heads:
