6.0 Heads On 4.8?
#1
My Buddy Wants My 6.0 Heads When He Does His Cam Swap. I Got A Set That Have Been P&p And Shaved .010. How Much More Would He Need To Shave Them To Make Good Power With A 4.8?(if Need To Be Shaved More) He Wants To Match The Cam With These Heads. I Just Want To Know If He Will Get More Power Over The Stock Heads With These. His Goal Is To Get His 4.8 In The 13's N/a.

im with zzebes on this one....your compression will fall because the cc chambers on those 6.0 heads are bigger than on the 4.8 heads, not to mention those heads are meant for a much larger 5.7 or 6.0 bore size.....trust me i know i cant fit 6.0 heads on my 5.3 unless i bore it to fit 5.7 pistons......my advice is to take your stock 4.8 heads and have them ported and polished, match a cam with those and you should get 13's just fine....

EDIT-I know I'm one too, but I try and keep my mouth shut unless I KNOW the answer.
