Default Who was making those LS6 Heads that flowed 300+ @ 570ish lift?

Trying to find out who was making those CNC LS6 Heads (with sotck valves) that flowed around 300ish @ .570 lift??

Was it LPE? Or TEA?

Thanks,

LPE/GMPP-SCCA heads milled .055" flow around 300/215. Mine flowed 302/215 @ 600 and 298/212 @550. LPE cleaned them up a little (hand port and sand) and installed 2.02s and 1.57s- now they flow 312/223 @ 600.Scoggin Dickey has them- SDPC2000 LS6 CNC HEADS <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

LGM's LS6 heads flow ~314 @ .550, I believe.

...i just ordered mine from sdpc at $980 per copy! ..unfortunately, they are on back order...about 7 - 10 days wait to ship...

...the guy told me they are selling 40-60 sets per month ...he said this is significantly more than his competitors becasue these heads dont require a core and are relatively cheap....wow what a deal!!!!

The CNC heads are nice. But the CNC heads directly from Lingenfelter for $1595 are pretty cool. The CNC heads simply have a big runner (250cc) compared to many other heads out there. That said, they are good heads for the price.
