I'd have those heads or the block o-ringed if you want to really crank up the boost. Or go with aftermarket heads with a thicker deck.

Why not go with 5 bolt heads to take advantage of your block?

I thought Dart or World or somebody already had them out because of thier block? Why would GM release this block without heads to match. Oh wait, it's GM...nevermind.

I think the World 6 bolt heads have a different pattern.
