That's awesome man! IIRC we have roughly the same exhaust setup. All I know is with these 5.3 heads and my Torquer V2 cam, the exhaust is just stupid loud lol

so you had the LS6 intake and longtubes with that cam and just swapping from LS1 heads to the PRC heads was 48rwhp? just wanted to clarify because that is awesome!
i like my 228R cam and 2.5 5.3 heads setup also

..and i can't keep it quiet enough even with the cats and magnaflow+bullet mufflers.

That is correct. I also added bigger injectors and ls7 lifters.

Nice you got more then expected. With the mods you already had done I'd say that would be around a normal gain swapping stock LS1 heads to the PRC 2.5 5.3's. Going from a 230cfm flowing head to 310cfm is a big difference. Good gains

My C5 gained 140whp/80ft lbs from stock by adding the 2.5 5.3L heads, 227/230 cam, LS2 maf, LS6 intake, headers and exhaust. They're an excellent set of heads for their cost.
