Have to agree TSP has a nice stage 2.5 5.3ltr head package for about $1134

Like they said, we can setup the PRC Stage 2.5 5.3's to clear without flycutting on that combo for a little over $1100. That'd be the most budget oriented head of all that we offer.

Yes we can sink the valves in the LS6 heads like we do with the 5.3l heads for more clearance. I personally recommend the 2.5 5.3l heads because of the smaller runner. The 220cc runner will pick up more throttle response on that MS3, which is known to be a peaky cam. I have this setup on my car and I couldn't be happier, I put down awesome numbers for the amount of money I paid for the package. I was also able to daily drive the package for about a year and half before I was able to get a little beater.
