6.0L compression ratio increase I have a 6.0 engine and I'm wanting to bump the C/R up to 10.5-11.0 without changing the crank and rods due to my budget. I know I can mill the heads to help some , but I dont want to run in to piston to valve problems because I'm planning on using a TSP MS3 cam. I know I change the pistons, who would make the best ones for my application? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

If you have an LQ9, you might try a set of LS6 heads... The LQ9 and the LS6 have similar ports, but the LQ9 is a 72cc chamber, while the LS6 has a 64cc chamber.
If you have the LQ4, I don't have much advice other than to swap the pistons. I would not suggest milling more than .030 off the heads.
