I put L33 heads on my 4.8, and they woke it up quite a bit. They have the same size valves (2.00/1.55) as your LS1 heads versus the LR4's 1.90/1.50s. I don't know what the difference in your chamber is, but I actually gained compression with this swap, coupled with a home port job, I got a noticeable seat of the pants difference. I am running the 799 casting (that's the chamber in my sigline).
Like I said, I'm running them on my 4.8. The only thing that does is help flow. Our smaller bore can't make quite the use of it that an LS1 or 6.0L engine can, but if you're asking if valve clearance will be an issue, the answer is no (assuming your camshaft is still a stocker).

the chamber should be around 65-66cc's
Okay, that's what I had heard too, and you are right on the chamber. Mine checked at 64 before I polished them (didn't check afterward). What is a stock LS1? Never CC'd one before. Surely they aren't 72 like the LQ4 are they?
