Default Proven LS7 heads for boost?
What are some proven 6 bolt LS7 heads that are good for holding boost well? 1200-1300 rwhp. 388cc motor using iron LSX block with Borg S366's. Compression 10:1.

All Pro seems to be the ticket at that level.

I'm not even sure the heads are really worth much at that power level honestly, I know a guy making 1200whp+ on very mildly ported LSA heads. If I were doing again I'd just get something fairly straight forward
