look at some stage 1 ls6 heads or some 5.3 heads from TSP,you can't use too big of valves with a stock 5.3 bore.or get some stock 243/799 heads and get them milled to get the compression where you need it .consider a comp cam,54-455-11.check out comp cam cam quest to get a ruff ideal of what each different cam power and curve look like.or look at thunder racing tr224 or a TSP 224r cam pkg.just some ideals to get you started with.
