Ls6 heads on Ls1
Many will say no many will say yes. I say yes as long as they are 2002+ with the lightweight valves. Also make sure they dont tell you they do have the light weight valves just because of the 243 casting. There are a lot of 243 heads that have the standard stainless valves floating around out there from caddys and gto's.
Take the heads to a local spreed machine shop and have them touched up for a few more horse, bowl blend and whatnot

I say no since you can get the same castings (243) ported with stainless standard valves for (~$875>900)
Livernois, TSP and PP do them
Much cheaper than a non ported set of LS6 with sodium valves (~$1200) and more performing too.
