which heads for 4.8?
so i have a spark plug hole stripping out and i figure i need new heads anywayz.. what would be the best choice for a 4.8? i figure ill just end up putting the same heads back on it but i was curious about all the others that match up to this motor. i have all the basics.. intake, exhaust, tb converter, hypertech, granatelli maf sensor, now looking at some gears and a cam.

4.8/5.3 casting-derivative heads are the only ones reccommended for the smaller bore of the 4.8....any other heads will have valves that are to large for the bore (causing bad valve shrouding)
