i just changed my 806 heads for a pair of milled 241 heads.. milled them .028.. did some slight portwork on the intake and exhaust runners.. bumped the compression up to 10.7.1

the 806 castings are 69cc's and the 241's are 67cc stock..

how did you like this?? worth doing?? also i didn't know 241's would bump compression. How would bumping compression help drivibility? I would think it would increase detonation?

LS1TORQ - He had them milled. Milling increasing the compression. Otherwise 241 heads shouldn't change the compression. If you want a slight upgrade without breaking the bank. 243 heads can be had on eBay for $400-$600 dollar depending if they're new/used whatever. Then you might see 15-20hp because you're picking up a little bit of flow and about half a point of compression.

PS - there is a set ending in a day or so.
