well he said just drop it in and go, i assumed he meant he wanted it to drop just the motor in and go. which means he will need heads for it and 4.8/5.3 heads arent ideal at all

just fine is a bit generous to say. That motor will be choking to death with shitty 5.3L heads.

That's kinda like saying "a 4l60e will work with a twin turbo 420." Technically yes it will work but you figure out the rest....

Does it have to be stock5.3 heads? Think outside the box. Ive seen worked 5.3 heads do decent. Are they the best no. But to lable them shitty isnt appropriate.
