i am looking at getting this kit for a winter project but wanted to know if it is any good, and any supporting mods i will need. i already have a ls6 intake.

bump... anybody used this kit before?

 

no but its a damn good deal IMO.

 

from what i heard from others, that its not a good kit..that its a POS..but im just saying what i heard..cant say its true...so i need options from others who say its a good kit

 

well the setup looks fine. I'de just pass on the cam

 

I can sell you a kit for just a tad more that will make a ton more power.

 

You should tell us about it fran

Im just finished the same setup on an 05 gto today. Will have dyno number later.

 

what supporting mods will i need and what size cam should i use instead of the one included

 

That is something to talk to a tuner about. They can grind you a custom cam that will be specially suited to your needs.

 

Looks like a good bang for your buck

 

Not sure where you got your info, but spend 5 mins searching and you will VERY quickly find that TrickFlow puts out one of the BEST heads for our cars. That kit is far from being a POS. You may be able to gain a few more horsepower by putting your own cam/components with the heads, but they are EXCELLENT heads. For someone looking for a winter project, i dont think you would be dissapointed with that kit at all! As far as an off-the-shelf package goes, it is very good. I wish I had the money, I would be buying one myself!

 

This is the problem with forums like this people hear and pass along the wrong info.

 

I agree that it would be a nice off the shelf package and appears to be a good value!

 

I bought this kit , but sold the cam and ordered a pat g. You cant beat the heads, and all the components are good. I had the heads milled to 61cc and bought a .40 cometic head gasket. I dont have it all installed ,, because i had a problem with the gaskets leaking and had to tear it down again. I am very happy with the kit , and anybody that says that it is crap doesnt know that these heads are some of the best heads you can buy for an ls1.

 

Lol....Looks like they make the best street heads for Ford and Lsx's, down the road I plan on buying a set of these whenever I get a new shortblock....

 

So what is going on with your head gasket problem? Thought you were going to reinstall it?

 

Yea i am, i currently have 1 head back on and when i get the other on i will do a pressure test on it to check for leaks. I havent worked on it in a couple of weeks due to the flu. Its kickin my butt.

 

Sorry to hear that. Get better and good luck!
