Default 5.3 Performance Upgrades

Ok guys I am curious as to what heads, cam, etc.. that everyone has used and what gains you have gotten from them. I would like to do heads, cam, and maybe the intake...but I wanted to see what the consensus is here first.

Thanks

The heads on these truck, flow pretty darn wee. Couple a stage 2 set of heads with a little hotter cam than the LS6 cam and you could be looking at 60 + rwhp, depending on your cam chouce and the amount of headwork you put into it. Lokk at THIS THREAD . There are 5 or 6 of us that will have heads going on this summer. SShotrodscom in in the process now and may be the first to complete it, unless Oxidizr beats him to it. As far as the intake goes, I would just leave it alone, or make it low on the priority list. Come on guys lets talk about it.
