Hell yea but they are cheaper from ET IF you can get them. Last I heard they were backed up months.

Why not go TFS or AFR if you want a top shelf aftermarket head?

Just to be different,
these just look so badass, and for the price, I thought they might flow some ungodly amount of air, and they do...320cfm @.600in lift. thats the 210cc version, the 225 flows 328@ .600

And whats with the 11* valve angle? Is that common with the other popular brands?

11* will net you more PTV. TFS run 13.5* and OEM is 15* as is AFR but AFR clears better than OEM. LS7 heads are 11* btw.

So overall these will outperform the AFR's and TFS? If I do these heads with a good cam and 90/90 am I looking at making 500+ hp?

And with these heads I can keep them for awhile and port them for a badass FI setup and flow some awesome air right?

Slight correction... LS7 heads have a 12 degree valve angle... carry on.

Depends on the whole combo but they are top notch heads.

They are already CNC ported but could be touched up.

^ Slow, I have no money. I did get a set of valves in the mail today. I'm trying to save up. I was supposed to make around $500 today, but everyone backed out. Hopefully, it will all work out though.

there's power left on the table with those heads. They're not bad heads, but they could be better.

The people who informed me of this when I was asking them about these heads do not wish their names to be involved. Sorry. Guess you'll just have to either believe me or not.
