Highest HP From 243 Heads?
Just posting the data out there. Due to a number of circumstances that is my current setup lol. Makes a lot of torque. The same heads on my LS1/MS3 cam, same car, trapped 117-118.
He said it weighed 3490.....i would assume that's rw because 200lb falls off these cars with ease when modding. But even if it's car weight that's still not great. 243 heads are definitely capable of more.
But some of the difference here is the thread title says highest hp. That can be much different than acceleration.

Last time I weighed it it was 3320 without me. I'm 190. I don't have the current weight of the car but I did do some reduction previous to the day I ran that trap speed, so 3490 was my estimated race weight.
550whp should yield you way more mph than 127. Was there issues getting down the track? Super high da? Heavy *** clutch?
Lots of stuff comes into play when talking trap speed or acceleration.

I’ll have to check the DA, I was on the original trans which was hard shifting into 3rd and 4th. Clutch was a Monster Level 2 that was getting very hot. This setup was on an 85mm MAF also.
