VERY nice numbers with the ms3...any reason you didnt go with the ms4? do you have to flycut w/ the ms4?
im really thinking of switching to the 5.3's milled to 59cc w/ my torquer 2 or step up to a torquer 3...i think i'd be all over 470 rwhp with that setup?

Thanks, I buy my MS3 3 years ago, the MS4 was not in production at that time, but for a new h/c set-up I will probably go with an MS4 or a torquer V.3!

im wondering what those heads milled to 59cc would do with a ms4 or torquer 3 and a ported fast setup...would you have PTV issues?

I have similar mods to my car. MS3 cam, 5.3 Stage 2.5 heads, all bolt ons, hooker long tubes going into 1 chamber flowmasters, and a BBK aluminum intake and TB. I only made 442 to the wheels through a 6 speed and stock 10 bolt. I wonder how much the BBK junk hurts me compared to FAST. I also spray a 150 wet shot. I have since broke the rear and went with a 9". Anybody want to bet on track times before I go? The car is getting new rear suspesion componets this week and a fresh tune.

I saw impressive #'s from TSP's PRC LS6 heads on stock shortblock, LS6 intake, TSP 233/239 cam, longtubes through an A4 that I dyno tuned to 442 rwhp with converter locked. Best #'s ive seen yet on a heads/cam A4 car

What gasket thickness are you using with those 5.3 heads?
If I decided to mill those heads, and flycutting the pistons, how much would it help out vs not doing either of those options? And what would the ideal gasket thickness be?
