Default PRC As Cast Heads Dyno Results on 01 Z06

We just finished dyno testing a production version of the PRC As Cast Cathedral LS cylinder heads & I'm completely pumped up about the results!

The test car is a 01 z06 cam only car with the following mods:

Z06 LS6
243 Heads
Tsunami Camshaft
PRC Spring Kit
TSP Headers & X Pipe
Stock Mufflers
Vararam intake

The only addition was a set of PRC As Cast Cathedral Heads. The car gained right at 30hp & 24lb ft of torque! That's a awesome gain over a LS6 head, keep in mind that'd probably be 45-50 over a stock LS1 241 casting!

The first production run of these heads are expected to be ready less than a month so keep your eyes open for new results very soon!

Been following your thread in the Internal Engine section. Can't wait for these to come out. Any idea on pricing yet?

How do they compare flow wise to the 237's?
How big is the valve?

Dear TSP , you gotta go for a small bore LS3/LS7 heads for the LS1/LS6's "3.905" bore. I would be the first one who buys them! with a small bore cnc'd LS3's, I think they will flow up to 350-370cfm which with pull up 60-80rwhp over the LS1 heads.
so a H/C ls1 with cnc ls3 heads could reach 500rwhp easily

Look at mast's small bore version heads. They don't flow that much at all. The small bore version flow something like 270 cfm or something, I know its below 300

I've heard of them by a friend ...
and as you know , the Mast's are pretty expensive (not worth it) , even more expensive than the TFS's .... while the TFS's , PRC's , AFR's have a much higher flow ....

How did you figure 60-80rwhp over LS1 heads???

TFS 215s would outperform small bore LS3/LS7 heads on a 346ci.

Any Flow numbers?

Are these stock casting or aftermarket castings?

Ummmmm....just going out on a limb here but I have to guess aftermarket being that they are cathedral port and out perform the ls6 style heads by 30 hp.

They are most certainly aftermarket castings. Check out the thread in the Internal Engine section. Can't remember if Texas Speed posted flow numbers in that thread or not.

Nobody has built a ls3 port on a small bore because they cathedral heads we offer now will dominate a LS3 intake port setup IMHO.

This is a complete aftermarket casting head with the ports cast similar to our cnc versions.
