5.3 truck heads on GTO LS2? I have heard truck heads push more compression than car heads. I am wondering if 5.3 heads from a truck will benefit on a GTO LS2 since I figure the LS2 heads are built more?

I would not swap to a 5.3L head away from the LS2 heads your engine came with. it would bump your compression up some, but the loss in flow would negate the performance gained from the compression!

ok thats what I figured but wasn't sure
So should I do heads and cam build or turbo for more power on the LS2? It has long tube headers, cold air intake, computer programer? Pro's Con's?
