Quick stock LT1 head question...
I was just curious if I had a set of LT1 stock heads if they are worth working to something better or not worth the effort? Basically, if I had a spare set of stocker heads, could they slowly over time be worked into something worth while to throw on my car down the road or just save up and get some other manufacturers heads? If this question has been asked a million times, I apologize and just throw up a link...I haven't quite fine tuned the search to bring up what i am looking for every time yet :-( Thanks again guys.

So basically it would be better to get one of these stock head set-ups from one of these guys who works heads professionally than to have a spare set of heads here off car to take locally or work myself? Essentially, the above listed are head shops then right? I have a pretty good local guy, but not sure what he'd charge compared to someone like the above who seem to specialize in it...not to mention they specialize in it and hopefully have it down pat versus the local guy who may not know everything there is to know about the LT1 head. I am looking at a quick daily driver basically, and the $900 LE1 or maybe the LE2 are probably what I'm looking for as I would be using a 210/218 cam with 1.6rr. The only thing I could maybe do with the spare heads then is have the local guy work them, try them out, and if they aren't everything I expected, I can run with a LE1 or LE2 down the road I guess? What do you all think?
