Which heads for 6.0 lq9? Throwing a lq9 on my ls1 swapped c1500. Getting a fast 92/92 intake and already have a 227/235 613.620 110lsa cam. I was looking into the prc 5.3 stage 2.5 heads but dont know if i should get those. Also buying 42lb injectors this weekend... Kinda on a budget so i want the best bang for the buck. Truck is daily driven and sees track twice a week or so... Trying to hit 450rwhp...backed up by a t56 and 4.10s... Thanks
The PRC heads would work well there. Hard to beat for the money.
I'd get the FAST 36lbs injectors. They are like 299. They are the same injectors GM used in the ASA racing series and came stock in the 3800 Supercharged motors. Of all the injectors out there (besides the stock injectors), they have the absolute best injector data - including the transient data, which you don't even get with the $1K ID injectors.

Since heads are the most critical part of the equation I would consider going better on the heads now like AI ported 799s or their high compression version of the 317s that probably came with the motor and reusing whatever intake you have now or a cheap truck intake. Then do a FAST intake later easily swapped.
Good heads cost money BUT all the air coming and going moves through them and it makes them about the most critical part of a build. You want to cut a corner cut it somewhere else easily improved later.
