Very very close to the same flow numbers that is why I decided to give the a try seems everyone talks about them but I can't find anyone trying to make big numbers with them. I hope to be north of 1000whp with them I did have WCCH cut them for 1/2'' studs.

On a TVS2300 I would keep compression at least 10:1 so your 10:4 it great. We max those blowers and use compression to get all the power out of the 2300. I would also suggest running a cog on the rear of the blower and a 8 rib on the front drive along with straight meth. I run 16psi on my stock internal LSA except for a camshaft even with stock head bolts. If your track reopens I will get some heads from Richard and use ARP studs. My CTS-V made 685whp through a auto and loves it.

No cogs for me. I can't justify the extra $1000 for a jack shaft model for my truck. I will most likely go 8 rib up front. I figure if I really need more power I can use the $1000 I saved to spray a small shot through the blower
Have you tuned a 408/2300 combo? Do you remember the numbers?

Good luck Dave!

Will be interesting to see your results



one thing about the fin is even though it will restrict flow it should help with detonation and keep the air charge away from the cylinder walls

I have to say if the rest of the build looks like the heads it will be awesome! I am very happy with the heads they came out way better than other CNC jobs I have seen and Richard is second to none when it comes to customer service!

Looks like these heads are about $750-950 complete from GM for the pair.
The WCCH ported ones are $2000. Isn't that comparable to mast/TFS/AFR heads?

I sent my LSA heads to WCCH the port work is quite reasonable for the finished product I also had mine cut for 1/2'' studs. I believe these will be able to take all I can give them they are cast from a much better material than other GM heads and are supposed to have a thicker deck...I intend to see just what they will take.

That chamber has an almost mirror polish
I've heard that's a good thing for boosted engines
