Vortex pinnacle is easiest. especially when you have multiple shaman to Bind elementals.
I think Throne of the Tides is doable aswell, allthough there's quite some movement involved in boss fights.
I haven't tried any boxed heroic yet though.
I've 5-boxed all of the normal dungeons, killing every boss, with my mixed team - pally tank, priest healer, mage+hunter+warlock DPS.
For me, the final boss in Lost City of Tol'Vir was the worst by a long shot - nightmare the way he bounces everyone all over the place at the phase transition and collecting the group is a pain. If he bounces anyone off the roof, it's almost certainly el-wipo :(
However, IMHO, the normals were a lot easier than I remember LK normal dungeons being.
I'm just after my last couple of upgrades before I start on heroics.

I remember farming Halls of Origination normal for Justice Points and Rep. Once I had all my rep gear, I had enough points for 2 Justice items, my tank had 4 items because he had 4k justice points from the roll over. Then I went to heroics. I also ran battlegrounds for honor and used some PVP gear as well. The relics in my opinion were on par with valor items.

I got Tol'Vir last night on the random dungeon finder and wiped on General Husam 3-4 times and decided to go do some AV's instead.

The first Heroic I finished was Shadowfang Keep. I can also do Blackrock Caverns (skipping the 2nd boss), Halls of Origination (skipping the 'portal' boss), and all of Vortex Pinnacle. I just recently beat the first boss in Grim Batol, and can do the first 2 bosses in Deadmines.
I think after patch 4.2 and the current Valor gear becomes purchasable with Justice Points, things will get incredibly easier. My team's average item level is about 345.

How do you skip the secon dboss in black rock cavern?
If you skip any boss, it seems that Raz won't clear the path for you.

Raz doesn't spawn til you get to the bridge. Corla is completely skippable.

Clear the trash up to the second bridge (skipping the second boss), then if you are close enough to the bridge/trash packs on the bridge you can zone out (using the LFG tool), zone in, and then teleport right to the third boss.
There is a post about this from maybe January that has more details if you need. ( too lazy to find it myself sorry ;)

I do not play arena or rated BG so the best gear I can aquire are the PvP gear bought by honor. Will this gear be enough to do any cata heroics as a 5-boxer?

Why not gear up with Justic Point gear from clearing normals rather than waste item stats on resilience?

In addition, there's all the faction rep gear, too...

Already have several Bloodthirsty items ilvl 352 so farming normals to "upgrade" to ilvl 346 gear doesn't seem so fun.
Also I do enjoy both pvp and pve but I haven't got the patience to farm two complete sets for an entire group. So if heroics can't be done with honor gear, then I may have to accept cata heroics isn't my thing... :)
