Default patriot performance ls6 style vs ls6

is there really a difference between the 2? gunnar is aparently out of town and im dealing with someone else and im having doubts now. he's saying the 243 heads for 1095 are stage 1 and the flow numbers are a typo

the ls6 style heads do show better flow numbers and have bigger stainless valves but im not sure if its worth the extra cost...should i spend the extra for the ls6 style or stick to my guns and order the 1095 heads that might not be what i expected?

i went ahead and pulled the trigger. from what i understand the only difference now days between the ls6style heads and cnc's ls6 heads is the valves....im not 100% on that but its the only thing i can think of.

i thought they did away with the LS6 style head and just sell the 243, no longer the ones from 035 casting. i could swear i read gunner posting it in a thread a few weeks or so ago. but i could be wrong. i'd go with the ls6 heads.
