Our heads work great with the F13 cam. Our LS6 style 2.02"/1.57"/59cc would be a great head for this set up. It will give you 11-1 compression while remaining at OEM deck height. Each one one of our heads are custom done for your application and are fitted with REV stainless valves, ti retainers, Super 7 locks, custom honed bronze guides, machined spring bases and viton rubber seals. All of this for only $1,195.00 per pair assembled. If you have any questions, PM or give us a call.

Give us a shot www.PortPros.com, we are not the cheapest for sure but we are the best. I think the word custom gets over used in this industry but it's truly what we do.
I don't have 100 set's of heads setting on a shelf ready to ship. We build and port our heads one set at a time to order using only the best componets from Ferrea and Comp Cams.
Send me all the modifications you've done to your car and we will build a set of heads just for your application. We have several different valve jobs and porting modifications to match your car.
We can go with a set of LS1 241 castings, we pick these heads up 75 cfm with a 2.020 valve or you can step up to a set of LS6 heads. These heads will flow in the 330 cfm range. Once you send me all your information I can make a good recommendation for you.
Thanks, Harold

Summit shows the bare as cast heads for $617.69 each and the assembled CNC heads for $1,124.69 each. Might want to double check your source before you commit.

Guess that narrows down your choices a bit.
