    WTB: Heads for 2004 Tahoe

    I need a good set of low mileage heads for my wifes 2005 Tahoe. The heads on it now are 706's and are the Castech casting. The Castechs are known for developing cracks in certain areas, and hers has developed the typical crack in the drive side head. Her Tahoe is 5.3 with 74K miles.

    Looking for a set of good low mileage heads for it, not looking to spend a fortune either, just good, clean, heads. Let me know what you have, mileage, pictures, etc... I'd like something local so I won't have to mess with shipping, but shipping not out of the question if the price is right.

    Thanks in advance.

    that bites. Call the gm help line and talk to a rep. Tell them you are willing to pay your mechanic the labor to replace the heads if they will send you a pair of new replacement heads. Offer to return the bad heads to them for testing. They did this for me on another vehicle with 110K miles on the clock.

    Called up Snyder's Salvage down in Holland, Texas. He's offering me a pull out motor from a 2004 Silverado with 60K miles on it for $400. Prolly my cheapest out, and just sell my motor as a short block to recoop some of the cost.
