Cylinder head 853's I recently bought a 2000 camaro. Its a head and cam car. I was told it had ls6 heads on the car. He had a receipt for the heads so I assumed he wasn't lying. Retarded *** move.
Took all the numbers down off the heads and heres as follows,
Casting number: 853
Drivers side stamped number: 9826916068229855
Passenger side stamped number: 8269r3362856
Can you guys help me out figure this **** out? any idea what I have on my car?
Thanks

thats not too bad. is that what you run?
and i see you have gears in your car, with my big profile cam i wanted to do some gears so its not so bad in the low rpm, did the 3.73's make a difference?

yeah i really wanna get like 4.10s or 3.90's....did you have an m6 or a4?
i didnt think that 3.73's would be a noticable upgrade for an m6 cause it already has 3.42's

243 heads are the stock heads that LS6 and LS2 cars came with (also badged 799)
some 243 heads had lighter weight valves.
the stage 2.5 heads from TSP are from a 5.3L engine. I have a set on my 00C5. For 1200 bucks, I got a compression bump, CNC heads, dual springs and when combined with my 228R cam dynoed at 240 to the wheels.

yeah i was looking at their site, texas speed, and the flow number at a .600 lift are pretty much the same on both the prc and ls6 heads and the chambers are almost the same cc's. does anyone have a recommendation on one vs the other?
