Comparison Trickflow 225 VS. Lingenfelter stage 3 This was the ONLY change to the car between these two dyno pulls.
Yeseterday i put it on the dyno again and got a consistant 4 more lbs of tq so that is now at 445 I am going to run it again on saturday and see if I can tune some more hp out of it. These pulls were with about 25 dyno passes on the lingenfelter heads tuning them and 3 on the trickflows I think there is still more power in the trickflows as of now
I am sorry the ink was getting low on the printer
Lingenfelter 484.58rwp 425.15 rwtq
TRickflow 506.56rwp 441.51rwtq

22rwhp and 16rwtq peak is a great gain. But what is better is that your power under the curve has increased a good bit as well and that is the kind of horsepower you can feel.

Nice comparison, but I am warning people to stay civil.. I have been asked by other mods to give you guys a chance to make this a good thread.. How old were the Lingenfelter heads? Give specs on both heads as well. Give prospective buyers a chance to compare apples to apples..

Trickflow 225 heads milled to 12:1 compression Heads are brand new with harland sharp roller rockers these heads have been on for a month or so and I have dynoed them at those numbers reapeatedly as well
You can see that the lingefelters had an airtemp of 65 degrees f
while the trickflows were at 86 degrees f that was about the only difference which may have made a bit more power for the lpe heads but not much.

I doubt that the rockers helped at all they are the same ratio and quite a bit heavier in my eyes they hurt it if anything. Not sure what the .5 on the compression did for it maybe a few hp.

The reason why I ask the questions I do is to make sure the comparison is fair. Some vendors Stage 3 heads are like others Stage 1 heads. Vendors pick and choose which valves they want to use and some do/dont do valve jobs, etc, but it all matters when you are comparing heads. Runner size also matters.. When you use a vendors name in a post you want to make sure we are comparing apples to apples. That is how you breed competition between the vendors. Competition will benefit us all. Otherwise the title of the post could have been 225's vs 205's or 2.08's vs 2.00... I think I have made my point..

change the title to my 2300.00 lingenfelter heads vs. my 2500.00 tfs heads 
I feel that would be specific enough
This is the info I have on the lpe heads. This is from their website. I
Code: LS6LS2CNC
Price:$1,495.00
Stainless steel one piece 2.055” diameter intake valves, 1.57” stainless steel exhaust valves – per pair $440.00
Hand paper sand roll chambers and runners to remove CNC tool tracks – per pair $300.00
tfs heads have 2.055 intake valves upgraded springs set at a higher spring pressure for a few more rpms. the tfs use a .300 longer pushrod which came with the price of the heads
