I do wonder what it would have done on it's intended ICL.

I think it's a killer valve, a standard 2.10" stainless valve that comes in a TFS 245 is around 115 grams, and the stock LS3 is 89 grams, turned down to 2.10" it's 87 grams.

hey i've got an off-the-wall question regarding those valves...if you had a set of pistons with valve reliefs set up for the TEA TFS 245's and were switching to a head with LS3 valves, would anything be affected, or would there be PTV issues?

Now if you switch back to a 15 degree LS3 head with 2.16" stock diameter valves, then you might have a problem.
The Wiseco pistons I have feature the "multi-fit" valve notches, which will accomodate everything from a stock 15 degree LS1 up to a 12 degree LS7.

VERY impressive Brian. We will talk if i ever build anything again.
Hopefully we can all meet up and have some fun before to long.
Me in Texas you in Kentucky and Nick and Brian in Ohio may make things kinda hard though.

Brain,
What are the details on the "Special set of TFS 245" head entails. I am looking to have LME build me a LSX 451 with the TFS 245 for my 06 Corvette. I’m shooting for 600 rwhp. How much will the Nitrous port help with a 250-300 shot of nitrous? I’m currently running a set of 1 7/8 American Racing Headers and I’m looking at a set of 2" headers as well.
Sorry to side track you thread just looking for some details. Congrats on your build, it sounds like a beast!

The heads feature standard intake ports and chambers, the intake valves are LS3’s turned down to 2.10” and weigh 87 grams. The exhaust port is a special nitrous exhaust port that can be cut into ANY CNC TFS LS head made. This exhaust port requires a special 50 degree valve job which I ran on my old engine for a couple of years without wear, so I had no reservations with running it. I turned the exhaust valves down to 1.58” because I felt that is all the engine needed. The thinking with this N2O exhaust port on this engine is the fact that we were only running 1 7/8” headers, and it is 454 cubic inches, so we needed all the exhaust flow we could get. The 50 degree seat actually reduces flow at very low lifts, which reduces over scavenging during overlap, which is critical for helping a long runner intake make peak power.

Just got the engine back from CA a couple of weeks ago and got it in the car last week, so no track times yet. I'm at SAM in Houston this week and maybe next week, but hope to have some track times by the first week of Sept. I don't expect it to be super fast, because I'm just not going to work at it that hard, but it would be great if it will go 9's on motor.
