    damn 1 off lol....then it would raise compression if the 853's are a smaller combustion chamber, not by much but it would do it

    1 point of compression is worth 20hp...you may get 5hp from switching the heads....unless you do what he said and get the ported and polished

    Its not worth the trouble of swapping heads unless you get some nice ported ones and while you are at it bump the compression up. The best budget heads out there right now are the patriots, I think TRT has a set for sale now for 700 or 800 bucks which is a damn good deal. With those and milling them to get you around 11:1CR you would probably drop an additional 4 tenths and gain 3-4mph.
