I did purchase a blower off a ZL1, and I am going to install it on my 2010 SS 6M, Small Block, LS3.

I just want to get some insight on what to do about the heads.

Some shops have told me to get my LS3 heads machined, due to the bottom of the LSA blower having studs that interfere. Other shops said to remove the studs and simply slap on the blower.

But to use LS9 GM Head gaskets not cometic, ARP Head studs or bolts, steel rods, manley SS valves and to go with PRC .650 lift springs.

I'm aiming at somewhere near 600-650hp after this install and a blower cam.

SRT10KLLR, do you recommend the GM front accessory or a different manufacturer? Also what other items do you speak of, that make this expensive???
