use the stock heads with aggressive cam, 230-240 intake duration.
if its a lq9, pull the heads, cut in relieves, mill the heads, gm .051 gasket.
shoot for 10.5-11:1 scr. the ls6 intake or the 90mm tbss intake will more than support 525bhp.
no need for l92 heads or intake in this case.

The PT tab will get you to guys that run trucks like myself, but I enjoy both sites equally. The main difference you will see is torque vs. horsepower...heavier trucks need more torque to move the mass (6300# in my case) than do lighter vehicles. Check out the build threads and harvest some ideas; No need reinventing the wheel
