TEA heads and FMS 228/230 cam
What kind of power will this setup make on a 2000 Z28, 6 speed, with all the boltons and LS6 intake? The heads I am looking at is the TEA stage 2 5.7 heads (the new optional hand finished ones) and a Futrel 228/230 cam. Would this cam fot with heads that have been milled .030? or would I have to fly cut my pistons?

If you have a good exhaust, good tuning, the hand finished TEA heads & FMS 228/230 shouldn't have any problems 435-445 rwhp depending on the car IMO.....If you're running through a 10 bolt, 440 should be in the bag

i have slp heads with a comp 228/234 571 lift and i had my heads done by opal eng. they milled mine .035 and had no problem with them. i dynoed at 405 rw but had stock exhaust and the ls1 intake. i'm curious when i get around to a better cat back and an lsx intake ported throttle body and a couple other extras what it we'll be.anyway hope that helps seeya

BAD, the comparison isn't a comparison IMO. The FMS cam drives, idles and has NO surging unlike my old 224 cam. This is also with my old 224 tune. I haven't had a chance to tinker with my new setup yet. I let for Fla (where I am at now) on vacatoin and haven't had a chance to tinker with.
Damian, That was with the S2 throttle body and yes, no pulley with 24* timing and all the other issues I have, remember??? He says I have more issues with my car then women do in life.
