243>317 heads for N/A ls1/2 considering the milling potential to optimize compression
Stock LS1 has 10.1 compression ratio with 68 cc chamber IIRC?

The 317's can be milled down to 65 cc chamber.

Then he'd need a cathedral port intake manifold.

Not saying the 317s would be a better choice. I was just trying to point out that he might be able to find new cast heads for a good deal. Again, not necessarily cheaper than the route he is planning on, but IMO it gives more piece of mind.


Either way, get that motor in the car. Duke island is right around the corner
