Default reccomendations for stock 5.3 heads

Looks like I'm gonna get a badass deal on some stock 5.3 heads.

I'd just like to know you guys recommendations to do with them.

I'm probably gonna have them ported/polished and valves done by someone here on island. I'll do the springs/rockers myself.

Yeah. I'm thinking I can buy some already worked 5.3 heads and send these in as the core charge.

Yea, there are a few vendors that will do that. I just bought mine straight out cause I caught BO with a extra set after he sold his car.
