Default 4.8 heads?

I hear of people putting 5.3, and 6.0 liter heads on ls1's but has anybody installed a set off heads from a 4.8? Would it help or hurt performance? And if ported/polished, bigger valves...would they be better than 5.3, 5.7, or 6.0 heads that have been ported/polished, and bigger valves?
