Hi all,

I recently purchased a 2009 Z06 and I absolutely love the car! It came with a Certified Pre-Owned warranty but it's only a whopping 3 months/5000kms. After that I plan on having the heads looked at/swapped as a preventative measure.

I'm looking at the American Heritage Performance package and just swapping the heads, but I'm no wrench, so I can't do the work myself.

Can anyone recommend a shop in the lower mainland that has experience with the LS7 and/or fixing up the heads?

Thanks!
 
Hey PKStyles! Welcome to the forum! That sounds like an awesome car and it's nice to hear you're taking some preventative measures with the LS7 heads. Post up some pictures of your car! We'd love to see it!

It's been over a month of ownership and I'm smitten with this car! I can't stop driving it :) The power and exhaust note is absolutely intoxicating.

Here's some pics guys.

Regarding the heads, this car had them done in 2013 at 28,000kms under warranty. The replacement GM performance heads have about 20,000kms on them. They replaced the entire head assembly, valves, springs etc. on each side. Maybe they're fine, but I want to get the valves measured at the very least to see if they're in spec.

Welcome to the forum PKStyles.

I believe Manny from Dasilva Motors (Forum Sponsor) has done quite a bit on the LS7, maybe give him a shout and get an honest opinion of what is required
