Default Cheapest Heads?

Who has the cheapest heads? I am not interested in making 400 hp but 375 would be nice. How are the Scoggin Dickey CNC heads. I already have a comp. cam 222/226 561/569 lift 114 ls. and Mac headers with duels. I am going to sell the car within 6 months so I dont want to drop a lot of money on heads, just need another 25-30 hp.
Thanks DG

SDPC quoted $1970 per pair for the LS6 CNC heads. They are set up to have max flow @ .525 (to work with the ASA cam).

Looking at the flow numbers teh CNC's appear to be comparable until you go past .550 from somewhere past that, other heads seem to run past them by a wide margin. Especially when you get to .600

I have posted an open request in my thread for folks to post their flow numbers... I am still waiting to see what I get.

I think Total Engine Airflow Stage 2 heads are around 1600 - 1700 now. Call them and find out. They are CNC ported as well.

What are all the phone numbers and or links.
I already have a cam but it doesnt feel like it gained anything. It G-Teched faster with just gears lid and a catback. What about the 5.3 litre truck heads? How much for them?

Hammer cam+ Big yank verter+ stock heads+ A4 = 397 rwhp. No heads needed for your goals.
