dyno tuned...will new heads improve the power?
Well to start I got a dyno tune a while ago car put down 389 hp and 345 tq. Right now there is an ls6 intake, a 228 238 cam, stock 241 heads, hooker super comp LT's, 3in exhaust, borla, E-dump.
Would putting 243 castings also possibley getting the deck milled to raise compression help the hp and tq out any? Also would I need another tune or would it be okay to drop the heads in with no tune? I dont really have the cash to drop on another tune if its truely not needed. If I did get the deck milled what would be a good amount to have milled also what head gaskets would be best? Thanks guys

I don't know the lift on your cam but I milled my 243's 24 thousands to get a 11.05 compression. Use stock GM MLS head gaskets because cometics are expensive and suck.
Including all parts, a head swap is going to cost another $500-700 over whatever you spend on the heads. (Tune, head bolts kit, gaskets, ect)
