Default Trick flow as cast 220's

Redoing my top end. Trick flow as cast 220's milled to 63 cc combustion chambers. (10:9 CR)ls6 intake with ported throttle body and Tick Performance sns stage 3 cam, 36lb injectors, and all the other goodies to go with it. What you guys think? Who's running the trick flow as cast 220's? Bored waiting on parts. Lol

cant go wrong with Trickflows. Once I get the car fund built back up from the big christmas hit, Ill be going with Trickflow as cast 220s hand worked by Brian Tooley as well as a port matched FAST 102 also done by Tooley along with a custom cam from him. Going on top of my forged 347.

Yea didn't have the funds for Brian's touch up or the fast but the 220's leave a lot of growing room!

+1 on Tooley. I have a new set of 235's sitting on top of my 408 from Brian now. However I am no where ready to install it yet. But I am like a kid on Christmas morning and I can't wait. I went with the Tooley complete top end package, heads, custom cam, intake.

Maybe I'm biased... Trickflow 220cc heads are the best bang for the buck out there. i.e. I put down 440/403 with minimal bolt-ons and 1-3/4" long tubes. The guys who built & tuned the motor are masters of their trade, though. I was told the heads would give up another 10whp or so after cleaned up. I opted out due to the high cost/hp.

Like I said these heads have a lot of growing room. Their right there with fully ported 243 heads, but later down the road with a cnc they will be far superior than any factory casting with a cnc.

Ive got a set that ive just bolted on that were sent to TEA. Im assuming they just did a lil more valve work to them, cuz the runners are still as cast. Ive got a tooley spec cam to go with them. So I cant wait to see how it does.

Do the stock rockers need to be replaced with these heads?

You can have them take the bronze valve guides out and replace them with powder metal guides, and then the stock rockers will work fine. This is what I did.

The SBE LS1 record on my dyno so far is held by these heads with some polishing from Brian Tooley.

That's good news for those of us planning to run these heads! Mind me asking what the #s were and the setup?

Gonna be hard to compare as I use a Dyno Dynamics rather than the number happy dynojets. But it was 446rwhp and don't recall the TQ numbers. To give an indication of power cam only LS1's with full bolt-ons Fast intake etc normally pulls around 375-385hp.
