My vote goes to PRC.The PRC LS6 heads may be a better choice than the 5.3L heads.If you buy them loaded the price is about the same.

Between the two I would have to go with the TEA heads mainly because that is what I run and after looking around the Drag Race Section of this board it looks like the TEA headed cars are putting down better track numbers but drag racing is not everything.

I have never used the PRC heads but I feel that they are a good product and you probably cannot go wrong with either head.

Having owned both, I would go with TEA all the way.

That's the kind of response I like to hear....someone who has actually owned and used both heads.
