I don't think you can go wrong with either. I voted for Livernois because I have them. PRC will get more votes not because of quality, but because more people have them and TSP/PRC/whatevernametheyusethisweek is more popular because they post more. It's good advertising and it works.

I would vote for Livernois, I've yet to see any quality problems reported on this forum.

Power results are good on both sides

i like tea's , but it doesn't fall within my price range . so far the two i have listed are in my price range and doesn't require a core for ls6 heads . keep the votes coming !! I'll be placing my order to one of these vendors probably wednesday morning .

What about Patriot Heads? I have heard nothing but good about them. Price is more than reasonable and no "core charge" either. Just a thought!

Livernois also performed well (price vs. performance) in the comparison I saw not too long ago. I forget which magazine it was in, maybe someone else remembers.

Aww...you gave the sale to Dave?? Just kidding!


Thanks for choosing us. We put ALOT of R&D into every stage of head. It seems on here every one jumps on the bandwagon with PRC or AFR. I've seen the flow sheets from all of them on our own in house dyno and lets put it this way, you won't be dissapointed.


What's your setup? What headgasket thickness? Milling the heads any?


Thanks,

Chad @ Livernois Motorsports

I'm assuming your doing a cam too? What cam? Our stage 1 or 2 would go great with those heads.

I have a TSP 224/224 XE .566/.566 115 camshaft. I think they will work well together. I had the cam for awhile so I might as well use it .
