i though i remember someone posting that the 5.3 and 5.7 were very close and that the 6.0 was slightly more. i do have a flow sheet that someone posted on 6.0 head versus the LS6 head. the 6.0 had better low lift numbers but the LS6 had superior high lift numbers. hope this helps. hey man are your 5.3 heads in yet. cant wait to see it back on the street again.

5.3 heads flow less than 5.7 heads because of smaller valves and chamber area. When ported i see 5.7 heads do usually flow more than ported 5.3 also.LS6 and 6.0 heads seem to flow the most ported, it sure seems like comb. chamber crowding of valves sets the potential limits of heads.
