Not totally sure, but I believe the 225 heads will work on the LS1/LS6 motors. Tony M. could verify. These heads cost over $3,000.00 when new, due to many upgades like Ferrea Intake/Exhaust Valves, Upgraded Ti retainers, CNC Porting at AFR, 921 Comp Valvesprings, etc.. NEVER had ANY problems with them. I had them on a 4.125 Bore 427 motor, and they ROCKED!! Shipped to Lower 48 States ONLY!!! Let's Deal!!

The 600 mile answer is as honest as it can be! REAL bad subject!! Long story short: There's about 30,600 TOTAL miles on the Heads-30,000 BEFORE AFR rebuilt the Heads-About 630 miles AFTER. For whatever reason-The rearmost (#5?) cam bearing decided to "walk" backwards, eventually exposing it's oil feed orifice/hole. The entire motor then lost all oil pressure-instantly, but I also shut it down-Instantly!! IT SUCKS!!! No damage was done-Heads are fine. But motor was in a C5 and was a hell of a lot of work to R&R the 1st time. Now I needed to R&R it again. At 58 years old, working alone, and lacking spare time due to working 6 days a week-It's taken 3 years to R&R the motor a 2nd time. To paraphrase you-If you're serious, "Be honest"-Please send a PM. These heads are-Literally-As good, if not better-Than new. The springs are heat cycled, no defective springs/guides/guide seals/valves/retainers/keepers, etc.. The individual that buys them will NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

As for pics-The only way I can send is via CELL PHONE pic message. PM me with your contact#. The heads are 60 miles away at a shop with the rest of my engine. My last minute decision to sell them-The shop owner is unaware of it yet-I was going to use them on the new build. So, no pics until tomorrow or Tuesday. But I can have them by Tuesday for sure. I could ask the shop's owner if he's O.K. with giving his professional opinion on their condition. Then you can call and talk directly with him. I know people are concerned about buying anything used-Me included!! However-My reputation on the Forums is A-1-NEVER had ANY complaints-PERIOD! And I won't this time, either. These heads are EXCELLENT-Absolutely NO DISAPPOINTMENTS!! Guaranteed!!! The heads have NEVER given me ANY problems. They made enough power on my 427 A4 C5 to spin BOTH the rear 315/30/18 PS2's@70M.P.H.!! They would flow like a hurricane on a 346/383, etc... In the long run, I hope I'm not sorry I sold them!!
