Default Anyone Heard Anything About The PRC Heads?

I was scrolling through the stroker section of TSP's website and noticed that PRC has ported heads now for pretty good prices. The Engineer who started the company came from Patriot though so I'm curious how much better they are, if any. Anyone know?

PRC are pretty nice heads for the money. I was about to pick up a pair before my motor blew....so TSP sent me a motor instead

They have some decent ports, and while they aren't a Meaux-level head, you'll make some decent power from them. Their new LS6 head port is pretty nice - and getting better. I was looking at a set of 5.3 2.5s - should have flowed ~307-309 @ 600. The LS6 port flows even better.

LOL! Have any idea how long those heads have been out?

Actually...PRC is owned and was started up by the same owners of TSP. On paper its a completely seperate company though.

The PRC 5.3L heads have been around for a while, although its hard to find decent core heads that are not used. The newest LS6/LQ4/LQ9 ports and the Dart CNC ports have been done for about a month. The LS6 Stage 1 (stock valve) heads is what I just bought and installed on mine, there is a link to one of my dyno graphs in my sig. before replacing plugs and wires which jumped it up another 3-4.

We have some new equipment coming in next week that will help keep up with the demand.

I just ordered a set of Dart Stage 3 PRC heads...not for my car though.

Hopefully i can convince Jason to through a set of Springs on there rated to .700 lift...


Going for 500 on a stock 346 shortblock.

We made 489 before, but we have the itch!
