Default Would i be happy with T.E.A LS6 1.5's???

I have a set of LS6 heads laying around and i was wondering if having TEA do the stage 1.5 port on them would be sufficient for my goals below. I see some pretty good numbers and times coming out of the 1.5 heads. My question is, is it worth the extra 150.00 bucks or so for the stage 2 upgrade? How about the extra 800 bucks or so for the 2.5's?

Goals are:
I want to run 11.50-11.99 N/A and put down 450/400 on the dyno. Decent goals. Exceeding them would just make them sweeter. Current Mods in Sig.

Im running the CheaTR cam (215/232) currently but will be upgrading to something in the 23X/23X range. Appreciate any input or experiences with these heads.

Scoobs,
We are currently re doing our stage 1.5 ls6 Port. I expect great things out of it when it is finished. The 2.5 head will make more power but the price difference is only around 300.00.
Let me know if you need anything else, Brent

Ive never heard of anyone one unhappy with TEA. Just flow # bashers that rather spend three grand on heads. I spent $1350 on my heads and my car will out perform most out there with like mods and weight.

Scoobie I thonk your goals are very relastic and can be done with the TEA Heads.
A cam swap will be important but it looks like you already know that.
