Monte Carlo SS, Impala SS, and I think the Grand Prix
Here is a COMPNINE link to a 2007 Monte Carlo SS with the LS4 5.3L engine

Spec, if step 2 is deciding what brand of heads to get, do a lot of research on the ProComp heads (if those are the flebay ones you're eye-balling). Then step 3 will most likely be looking into which brand you should get instead.

I've heard more bad than good reviews from owners on ProComp heads pertaining to their quality control. They're made in China, unless that's changed, but I believe they are/were "claiming" they're made in Australia. They can have thinner castings in critical spots, such as around the valve seat area where the valves can hammer the head down. Yet on the other side of the coin, some guys will say theirs are working fine with no problems. That just supports the inconsistencies in q.c., which China doesn't have to conform to. Do an online search, you'll find a lot of bad crap about them. I'd go with a well known name brand, even used/rebuilt. You get what you pay for.
