Nice pic's, and sweet looking heads.
Good luck to you and defentially keep us posted.
If you would have milled the heads and bought flat top's with 2 cc valve relives you could have still ran a HHHUUUGGGEEE cam w/o P/V clearence problems correct?

I did a set of domed pistons as well and 6.0 stage 3 heads from AS that was I had all the same designs of the Z06 head w/o having to pay a 1200 dollar core charge for heads.
I ended up being able to buy the pistons and the 6.0 cores for the same it would have cost me to but LS6 cores.
Using my brain instead of my budget.

so what kind of gas are you going to be running?
i live in Irvine california and all we have here is that nasty 91 octane. i always thought u needed more octane to run higher compression please correct me if i'm wrong. and if you need more octane, what fuel additives are you going to be using?

For that compression I believe a good tuner can get the tables better than just fine. Since you will be working with them directly, you can oversee the tuning process etc and take care of business on site, rather than hoping something from a no face in the mail will automatically work with a stout forged setup.
