those are some impressive results from the TEA heads which is one of the reasons i am seriously considering them..i knew a guy that had them and with a mild cam he was running mid to low 11's at over 120 mph in a full weight daily driven street car

My numbers are in my sig. My car has a stock short block, TEA TFS heads, FAST90 a NW90mm TB, 42lb injectors and a custom cam. The exhaust is LT headers from Hooker and a dual exhaust system (from TSP!!) I have the stock clutch and flywheel from 02 and run a speed density program I built with HPtuners. My car has the stock accessories, stock pulleys, no mezier H20 pump, stock gears and I made those numbers with my 19" CCW rims. I'm pretty sure I could break 500 rear wheel with some 16" rims but what's the point it's a street car and those are the cars street shoes.

Thanks alot. The heads you guys put out are awesome. A local guy round here ran a 9.41@ 140 with your Stage3 LS6 on a 402 N/A. He doesnt post but he wasnt telling a lie when he said y'all were the best. Keep up the great work.

It was done over 2 years ago by LG Motorsports. They've done 5-6 heads/cam Vettes that have made over 500 rwhp. You don't hear about them as much here at LS1Tech, but you do on the Corvette Forum. Again, that was a while back. LG has been pioneering more of the LS7 stuff these days. To them, 500 rwhp LS1s are passe'.

As you can see above I was only asking. I don't mind being wrong, ever. As long as it's not over the same thing time and time again.

My stance is its better to be wrong and learn something new and incorporate it into your life and better yourself then go on thinking something that is wrong.

Nice try though....

Just curious, what does a set of AFR 205s cost fully ported and capable of making 500ish rear wheel on the stock bottom end?

When you consider the TFS you have to remember that the heads need roller rockers so tag on an extra 350. The heads come with the custom pushrods you need to support the 13.5° valve angle so that's a non concern.

So essentially you end up with a 3k bill for the TFS heads.

What do the AFR heads end up costing? I thought they were about the same maybe slightly more?? I have no idea I never researched AFR heads because I had NEVER seen a stock motor with AFR heads crack 500 rwhp. Those C5's are the first I've seen but that's no big deal I was a Supra owner for a long time and lost touch wtih LSX world and I'm re-learning a lot.

AFR's are about the same price as the TFS head.

Right on! To give you some perspective on me, I got interested in cars back in HS (1990s) but had to learn EVERYTHING from books and from friends because my dad didn't know the different between a flat head screwdriver and a phillips head screwdriver. So a long long time ago, I left my ego at the door on the topic of Automotive understanding, technology and tools..... it's helped make this hobby a lot more fun for me then it has been for some of my friends.

There is a sticky about Vendor vs Vendor threads.. Please go read. I am going to let this post ride, but I am going to watch it. If this gets out of hand I am going to look for individual nutswingers to punish. I dont like Vendor fights and I will ask PSJ to talk to any Vendor who instigates these type of threads... These threads have the potential to hurt someones good business..
