243 LS6 heads worth it?????
243 LS6 heads worth it????? Not sure if discussions on cylinder heads belong in this forum or internal engine. If this is the wrong section mods please move.
I ran across some 243 LS6 heads for around $500. Is it worth it? Would they require some port work to really be worthwhile? I would be putting them on my 1998 SS that currently has the stock heads. I will soon be adding an LS6 intake w/ported TB and if I buy these heads I will go ahead and start saving for a cam and all supporting stuff. I wasnt really planning on taking my car to this stage yet but if this is a good buy on some 243's then I will be upgrading everything in a few months. Thanks.

Thats about average on the price, you should gain 15-25rwhp from them with no port work. I was going to get some for my car but decided to go with the prc stage 2.5 5.3's instead
