I would go with the new ET 11 degree 215cc head or the new TFS 13.5 degree 215cc head, they should be the most powerful 3.9 bore heads on the market.

look into patriot heads, cant beat them for the price. I'm going for the tsp 231/237 .598/.595 112 lsa w/ pp ls6, stg II, 2.02/1.60 59 cc. should make some awsome HP.
good luck.

We can do a set of our LS6 style heads with 2.02"/1.57" valves and 59cc chambers that will give you 11-1 compression and still be at factory deck height. These will come with a flow show that is for the heads you buy. They will run $1,195.00 a pair assembled. This includes new GM MLS head gaskets and OEM head bolts.

AFR's...

Their design is proven and they make good power on almost every combination they have been bolted on...worth the extra money for the quality and peace of mind.

Are you thoroughly confused yet?....LOL

Seriously, call or PM me if you would like more info.

Tony M.

PS....Regards to all from Vegas....Make sure you stop by the AFR booth if your lucky enough to be attending the show (SEMA of course).

AFRs

Once you have them "that" part of your performance package will be resolved, finished. You can then focus on the other components and not worry about the quality of the heads....
