Default So many now, but Good heads to match to TSP TqrII?

since I have gotten the Tqr II from TSP, there has a been a bunch of heads released. Out of all them on the market, I know AFR is the creme de la creme, but you pay for them too.

I understand though from reading back a year ago there was a set TSP was putting up against them, amongst others. Guess what I'm getting at is there an inexpensive head design out now that will mate well with the Tqr II cam and provide a good bump in hp/tq?

Or.. should I just stick to getting the FAST 90 ported, NW TB w/ the deal I got which is cheaper than any new head could cost?

bump up, im interested in this too. Too many heads to choose from, not enough time in the day to read all about'em.

Hmm, very similar setup, except for the Dana! Lol! So if I were to guess, the Fast setup got you around 20hp, and heads 30hp?

I'm good for 410rwhp with the tqr II.

basically anything is better than stock

something like the Dart 205s would help build good low and mid range power, and if milled to keep compression up you should see 440rwhp easily.

the TFS are not what i would call inexpensive...particularly since you have to use aftermarket roller rockers (+$400) with them.


a set of ported 5.3L heads would probably get similar results as the Darts.
