Default LS1 GT-2 Heads?

http://www.sdparts.com/product/12480...inderHead.aspx

Has anyone seen any specs on these head? Are they that much different the normal LS1/LS6 heads? Anyone used these heads? Just curious as to anything on these. I see that you would have to have a custom header so thats a big downfall with them.

I'm just asking about them so please don't say don't waste your money or go buy AFR for a little more.

Well you wont be wasing your money. But thoes are C5-R heads. If you just bolted thoes your compression will be right at 19:1 and thats assuming the valves fit the bore. Not to mention the custom intake, lol.

Did they ever put out the intake and exhaust for those heads cause i have seen the C5-R Blocks before. Now it makes sense that there basicly custom heads.

Well they will fit the regular LS blocks as long as the valves fit the bore. As for the intake, your either looking at a sheetmetal or ITB's. The header pattern is the same as regular LS cars also.
