Default shortblock question

I am going to get a D.S.S Racing shortblock thats been stroked out from a 4.6 to a 5.3. so first question will all 4.6 parts still work for the 5.3? I am gonna go with a 4v setup any good websites to find 4v heads? I am also going to be running a kb 2.8 mammoth so whats a good compression ratio to shoot for?

Just talk to the shop ownder thats going to tune this car, based on you questions your not familiar with these motors one bit. The 5.3 stroker is still a 4.6 ts no different so of course 4.6 heads will still work.......what other heads would. Also for the blower u wanna run yull need 4v c heads or terminator heads.
