Re: ls/lm head question.

I wouldn't bother with the head swap... not enough of a flow difference.

If your not doing a full cam, pushrods, springs, rockers, intake manifold... etc.... you won't see a difference except in your wallet.

Keep the truck manifold unless your going to an LS6.... don't doubt the truck manifold... makes better low end torque than the ls1 intake manifold
