they did great in the head to head comparison with other companies.
i bought tsp 2.5 ls6's, low tq numbers for my set up.

 

TEA or Livernois i will be happy to have any of those

 

Tough call but i bias with TSP

peace

 

I Am also TSP-Biased, but this thread should show up some good opinions. FWIW the price and dynos on the TSPs are unbeatable.

 

both are very good for sure!! i guess whatever fits your budget.

 

I have bought from both TEA gets my vote

 

I chose the TSP heads, great pricing and they get the job done.

 

Total Engine Airflow's TFS heads....

 

What are we basing our decision off of?? Cost/power/reliability/overall performance/availability/customer service??

As Jeffstar said above, TrickFlows.. There is not a cylinder head on the market that can compete with them right now in my opinion.....


Also, I noticed Terry Wilkes voted TSP... Wonder why that is?

 

I voted for TSP because I belive they make a great product.I also noticed where Brian Tooley voted for himself.

 

Which one has more documented round WINS in sanctioned competition?

TEA for the WIN.

Period-

 

Where do I check the AFR box??

LOL

 

 

I have AFR's but right now nothing is touching TFS's power out put. If AFR made a head like TFS's then we would really be talking, But as of right now they don't. AFR's heads can pass smog tests too.
But as Ron stated above nothing is touching them right now.

 

Like Ron said, I think you have to look at the big picture. TEA has many more years of experience in CNC porting heads, more experienced personnel, better process's and better customer service.

Shops that have installed both the PRC's and TEA's have told us our 5.3's made more power, and there were no durability issues either.

But if you are shopping price alone, then we would lose. But I think if you add up what it costs to have to remove a set of under performing heads or removing heads due to issues, then the extra cost of the TEA's look far better.

 

what size cam should i go with depending on what what heads i go with? i want an aggressive cam.

 

brian, shouldn't you be in school now son? Tsp gets my vote, the cost to preformance is amazing.

 

I got my Stage 2 TEA 5.3's I think around 3 and a half years ago. And they are still on the car today and they are pretty sick. I made nearly 390 to the wheels with a pretty small cam. The tune is a little off so i'm in the process of tuning it myself. Should make a couple more horse.

If I buy another set of heads it will be TEA worked TFS heads.
