Default 6.0L heads worth it?

Let's say I get me a GWP stage2 procharger. And I don't plan on more than say, 7psi, mainly 5psi. After reading Kimchee and Rice's post in the engine forum, with it being reported that 5.7L heads are actually slightly under 70cc's as opposed to 67.3cc's, are 6.0L heads worth getting to drop the CR some? I doubt I'd have much to spend on any porting/chamber enlargement. And what about these slightly thicker head gaskets?

just purchasing 6.0 heads to drop the CR only isnt worth it, it doesnt drop it enough. I got them thinking they wouldd by themselves but after investigating found they wouldnt. But im glad i got the because of the slight drop of CR and the BETTER FLOW too. get them if you want them to flow better and drop the CR.
These heads combined with thicker head gaskets will help for a budget build.

That's what I was figuring. I guess I'll just wait on those until I can get some good work done on them too.
