LQ9 Heads

i am really fricken bored and i was reading a little bit about heads for the LS1. just kinda thinking maybe i should steal the LQ9 heads of my 2004 escalde and put them on my Camaro SS.... do you think there would be a major benifit since Intake port volume and the Exhaust port Volume are the same as the LS6 heads? also the combistion camber is bigger.. any belifit there?

Re: LQ9 Heads

You will lose power due to the loss of compression. The LQ4 heads are a popular head for those adding blowers, as lowered compression is safer.
