LS1 heads/5.3 block
Will the LS1 heads fit on a 5.3 liter block out of a truck??? Guy here at work wants to stick them on the 5.3 so he can get the fast 90mm intake.

putting ls1 heads on a 5.3 is not an upgrade in performance. you would do this if you increased displacement, or if for some reason you needed to lower compression. a 5.3 head swap is an upgrade for and ls1 because it increases compression with its smaller chamber. with some good machining it will flow well too.
