I believe that's Ford's stance on the head issue, but mine are milled and have handled beautifully. You just can't mill too much off that's the key. Need to make sure you find a very good machine shop.

I know this is an old thread but Cheezit do you happen to have the RMS spec for a 6.0 head handy ?

A 6.0 that is not driven will also break. lot rot is an issue.
IMO any DB that will tell you to machine the heads till they are like mirrors should be avoided. That person knows nothing about machining and rms patterns.
any head/deck/block that is mirror smooth will not hold a gasket.
All the above are machined with patterns that are called RMS. that pattern is basicly there to help retain the gasket in place.
