Default 243 head work ???

Okay guys im got me some 243's im planning on puting on my z28 a big upgrade for my 853's lol. Well, Who does good Work with good prices on ls aluminum heads? I was thinking milling the heads to 62cc a good valve job and p/p of course. I got the upgraded vp from tsp/prc ready to install. Matt for Tsp chime in if you'd like to on this. Any vendors or shops willing to do a great job on my 243's lmk either on this thread or pm me with some prices and options i got.

TEA FTW! Look at the results they have been getting outta their 243's...enough said.
They flow almost 330 at .600 lift. Flow #'s aren't everything but i have seen these heads make good power time and time again!
