Anyone here run 6.0L heads milled back to stock compression?
I've heard the 6.0 heads flow better than 5.3s and 5.7s, but I also heard that the larger port size reduces compression. Has anyone used 6.0L heads milled back to regain stock compression? Would the extra flow help with a cam like a TR224, or is it a waste?

Not positive, just what I was told.
