either combo is going to be pretty good from what i read, but with the stage 1 ls6 heads you could run the MS4 i believe

Give us a call & we can discuss combos & what we've engine dyno tested. I think we can help you pick a good combo. The MS3 will clear 5.3l stage 2.5 heads as long as we configure them with minimal milling & a certain valve setup. We are also about to have the new PRC 215 heads ready that should push a well setup MS cam car near 500rwhp with supporting mods. A independent shop recently made near 500rwhp with a Tsunami camshaft & the PRC 215 heads!!

Personally I'd run something like the Tsunami 235/240 & the PRC 2.5 5.3l heads if your on a budget. If your looking for 500rwhp then I'd go Tsunami or MS4 with the PRC 215s & thinner gaskets!
