need help with head choice. im going to be doing a head/cam on my GTO. Its a 6.0 LS2 , M6.
I plan on getting either a TSP 233/239 595 603 lsa 112 or the Magic stick V.3
I have a set of Kooks 1 7/8 headers with offroad pipes.
What heads do you think would be the best choice for my setup. I cant afford AFR's or ETP, the most i can spend on heads is around $1600.
i plan on picking out the heads from TSP since they have great prices compared to everyone else.
i just cant decide between:
1. PRC CNC Ported LS6 heads
2. Darts 205 cc or 225cc
3. PRC 5.3L Stage 2.5 'R' Ported Heads
out of these 3 heads what do you think would be best? also would i have any piston/vavle clearnance problems with any of the above mentioned heads??
any help would be great
Thanks,
Matt

How much power you looking for? Your car has 243 casting heads stock (in case you didnt know) so I'd have a hard time buying the PRCs with the same casting. I personally am just doing cam/exhaust/FAST 90 if I dont go FI on my LS2 and should be around 450rwhp.
But to answer ur Q I'd get the Dart heads if ur budget is 1600. I did the PRC 243s on my LS1 for a few different reasons.

I think i might switch to the MagicStick V3 cam.
so y ou think the darts are alot better than the PRC LS6 Stage 1 with the competition valve job
