Advice on a good head swap?
Advice on a good head swap? I am starting my search for a good set of heads. The mods are below in sig, but most importantly I do not need to buy any springs/retainers as I already blew too much on those Comp 921's 
.
I would like a quality set that offers the best bang for the buck. Currently leaning toward the TSP LS6 w/competition valve job.
What input do you guys have? Any suggestions or ideas would be great.

get the bare castings from gunner and have a sponsor put them together and machine them. You will have under 1000 total and have a nice set of heads if you already have everything that goes in them
Best bang for the buck are the stock valves 243 casting heads (ls6). You can add options for fairly cheap too. nothing wrong with patriot as theyre a great budget head.

This sale is going on till Sept 4th I believe. You can get a Stage 1 with valves and seals only, just slap on your 921s.
Contact Gunnar, you cannot beat that price for 243 CNC ported casting.

What was the issue with Patriot heads? A year or two back there was a problem, cant remember what it was but its made me leery of recommending them. Was it a valve spring issue? They are certainly priced to sell no doubt.
Nice another heads/cam orange car. I recently got some goodies for my car (ls6 heads) that are getting sent to TSP to be CNC ported and i'm still looking for a cam to go along with it. Not sure on how big i wanna go yet however.
