I'm new to the LS world and can use some help. I purchased a LQ4 with aluminum 317 head. I would like to gain some more hp but keep the same heads.

I have purchased a LS6 intake And now I am looking at milling the heads and getting a cam.

Does anyone here have any recommendations on how much to mill the heads and what cam to use. I want something steetable but a lumpy cam. Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks!

.040" is what I went with, the compression calculator I used said that would put my ratio at 10.2 with stock head gaskets. If you're not planning to already, I recommend replacing your lifters while the heads are off. Using ARP or similiar head bolts that are reusable will pay for themselves if you have to take the heads off agian.
