If your not into the Odessa heads there is Indy RHS-X heads, Iron-ram heads, Cific heads, Mopar R/T heads if you can find them.

If you use the right cam with the 1.7 together they will work better than just a bigger cam with the 1.6 rockers and unless you get 1.6 RR's then you are going backwards as the RR have less friction than the stock rockers.

If you use your intake, and sensors, any 93-02 360 will work.

The Odessa heads are the best deal. Get the NEW castings, not the reman heads. They have thicker decks, and are far less prone to cracking than the stockers. There really aren't enough differences (so far as I am concerned) to justify the HUGE price difference between Odessa, and any of the other manufacturers.

My op on aluminum heads on a truck motor is I won't that's me. If you go look at the info for the heads I posted you will find that you can get a iron head that flows as much or more than the eddy's for less cost. Head over to Hughes or Hipotech web sites to get a look at the different heads offered then go hunt on the web to find the best deals for them.

If you are going to use your intake that's on the current motor then any 5.9 magnum motor will work.

Edit: Odessa sells the EQ Iron ram head I posted about $410 each with 2.02 & 1.62 stainless valves good for .515 lift. For that head Hughes and Odessa states new heavy duty casting where as the other heads listed by Odessa don't say that at all. Not enough info on that ebay site for me.
