Yes, they have the holes for the coolant lines on both ends of the heads, but I think all LS cathedral heads have the holes.

I would get the as cast TFS, with a couple of hours of hand work they will make close to the same power as the full CNC TFS heads for a lot less money. Plus you have thicker decks for power adders, custom Ferrea valves, some of the best springs ever put on a mass produced LS head, titanium retainers, very high quality machine work, how can you go wrong?

thanks ,I went to their website and it said no steam holes,maybe I read it wrong.I think they are good heads,I am also worried they will make too much power and strain my stock rear end.I will go with a small converter .
