Dyno after ported heads & TB on Z06 **updated with pricing** Just got my 02 Z06 back and very happy with results. Upgraded to ls7 lifters, ported, polished the stock heads and TB. Put down 460 rwhp with kooks, or mid pipe and stock cat back. Also have stock injectors and ls6 intake. Also have 233/238 .598/.603 112lsa. Gains over 40 rwhp with just ported/polished head and ported tb.
I have got a lot of good feedback from these results and asked a lot about prices I paid. Here is the break down below.
$750.00 for porting and polishing heads with valve job and surfacing.
$149.95 for head bolts
$85.00 head gaskets
$600.00 labor to install heads and new ls7 lifters
$150.00 T/B porting
Hope this helps!

Thanks guys!
I had the port work and tune done in Houston Texas. I am not sure if he is a sponsor on this site, so to not get into any trouble I will PM you guys the guys info. I will tell you this, he has tuned and installed all my lsx cars and they have been great. There is always a lot of drama on this site and bottom line is results are all that matter. Ill post some videos and pics later.

Great results. I am not suprised at all. All aftermarket heads are copies of the factory heads. If they are properly cleaned up with good springs and valves they will produce the same power as similar sized aftermarket heads. I think a fast intake, port matched to your heads would give you another 15 hp.

Could not agree more. People always knock on the LS6 intake by sayin "wow impressive numbers for having a LS6 intake" but GM did it right it flows very well. Hell I made 462/410 with stock UNTOUCHED heads and the stock LS6 intake on my C5Z. Congrats on your new gains, now put up some videos of you draggin *** down the highway or track.

GM did some good work with the LS6 intake and the Ti exhaust. It's pretty hard to beat those without throwing out a lot of money for small gains.
