PEOPLE WITH TEA S2 heads.... What kind of power did you get out of them, also what size are the valves on the 5.7L Stage 2 head?
I orderd mine with custom 73cc chambers to lower the compression 1/2 point...
I have a 214/218 .540/.550 114lsa Comp Cam
Before the TEA heads, I was running 10.5:1 MTI S2, I popped a head gasket, so I found out the actual compression, and decided to sell them...made 470rwhp and 540rwtq @6psi
Now I'm gonna be 9.5:1 compression...
Car should be finished up at the end of this week I figure... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: PEOPLE WITH TEA S2 heads.... hey man,
I would have gone a tad bit bigger on the cam...but it should make good power with that one also <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> My TEA stage 2 5.3 liter's came with 2.02/1.55 fearra valve's...they flow very well..should be great for your blower car <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> in dropping your compression you will need to up the boost 2 psi or so to compensate for the compression drop...but your new set up should be solid!Good luck,
carter

Re: PEOPLE WITH TEA S2 heads.... The cam I chose..
214/218 .540/.550 114lsa is big in my standards now for a blower cam...I wanted to do a big blower cam originally, but was informed I wouldn't gain and possibly lose because of the overlap..
When I dynoed before I hit 6psi, I hope I don't drop down to like 4psi now with the compression drop... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
