Default Milling Heads
I could be getting a nice set of 243 casting LS2 heads and I was wondering if it would be worth milling them down? And how much? I will also be having them ported and polished. As off now I don't have any internal work done on my motor just the basic bolt-ons. I will be looking @ the TSP 228r or maybe bigger a little later though.

Thanks

Why would/do you want to mill them?

If you mill any you will run the chance of PTV problems unless you flycut with a 228 cam or bigger.
