I really think for a stock piston application I wouldnt bother with the 6L head on a stock bore...

Set the timing to 15 degrees, run good gas with a good fuel setup and you'll be fine for a good while. I think it is a waste of money honestly...

Do the springs for valve control and then worry about heads when the motor breaks (Cause it'll eventually break even with 6K heads

Tuning and fuel are 1000000000 times more important than 4-5cc's in your chambers. Listen to Chris. You may only gain like MAYBE 5 degree's of timing with the bigger chambers on pump gas, but probably not even that. Just get it tuned on both (93 and 110) and then you can switch back and forth

the goal is some where between 550-600 rwhp, not including the tq that it makes. i want this on pump gas, thats the goal anyways. not sure if i can do it on stock heads or not. BigBos do you have 2 sets of heads if so would you sell a set? either the 6 or 5.7's? just curious
