LS6 Heads with LS1 Cam?
Hey all, I'm sure this has been addressed before I'm having trouble finding it with the search engine so I apologize ahead of time...I have an 01 M6 coupe with 4.10's, blackwing, stainless works long tube headers (stock cats), kirban short throw shifter, and borla stinger catback...I recently moved the car to Colorado from Houston, and definitely feel the need to do another performance mod to help compensate for the loss of power at altitude...I'm leery of a cam swap since this is my long distance daily driver and needs to be completely reliable, so I've been considering swapping out my stock LS1 heads for those off an LS6...I'm thinking I could get some used on the forum for around 800 bucks, have a solid porting job done on them and end up giving myself a nice 15-20 rwhp gain while not altering the drivability a single bit...What do you guys think of this plan?? Am I way off base here?? Any help is appreciated!!
