trex is OOQ b/c of piston to valve clearence issues with 5.3 litre heads. on an unmilled head, as in stock, you shouldn't have any problems. if you get ls6 heads, just make sure they don't mill them at all. the t-rex has paper-thin PtV clearence as it is. you should also look into the magic stick cam from tsp. that should also make some wicked numbers. if you really want to run the 5.3 heads, you'll have to run a somewhat smaller cam. look into the 231/237 as P-Z said, o the G5X2. those both should fit, and still get you some nice numbers. not huge numbers, but still very decent.
