Question TEXAS SPEED's new 237 cc head with their 402 and a Giant or custom?

I'm about to turn the 1k mi break-in on my 6.6 LS2 and I'm planning on switching out my TSP stage 1 ported LS6 heads and the Vindicator I have now. But I'm gonna dyno this set-up first just for ***** and giggles

My goal is to have a TRUE (none of these fake, non-1/4-mph-performing cars ) 55x rwhp and be above 480 rwtq.

Is it possible with the PRC 237's and their Giant cam or would I need to go with a custom camshaft?

I would like to keep the lift under .640. Tuning is not a problem.

My car runs so smooth with these extra cubes that it's hard to tell it's got this much power as it is. I have a problem with squeaking the tires rolling slowly through parking lots over every speed bump

I just pulled the 6.6 out of my car and it had a texas giant in it and made great power everywhere. With L92s and an untouch L76 (cam originally meant for PRC stage 3 heads) it made almost 520 and torgue right under 500 at the wheels. One of my friends had the same setup but with a ported fast 90/90 and the stage 3 LQ9s and made right under 550 rwhp and torgue in the 500s. I would recommend the giant. Call Jason or Jon at TSP and they'll set you up.

Is there any link available for his dyno graph? That sounds VERY promising

How much torque is lost down low with a cam that size on a 402? Ball park figure?
