torquer 2 ok with stock 243's?
 
i was originally going to go with a tsp heads/cam package(5.3's or ls6's), but due to my shrinking budget, i was thinking bout buying a set of used stock used 243's. i'm planning on getting the supporting hardware(pr's, springs, lifters, trays), but i wanted to know if the tsp torquer2(232/234, 595/598) will work well with these heads? plan on being a semi dd, hoping to put down 410-420 rwhp, and around 390-400 rwtq. any opinions/help/suggestions would be appreciated.

Yes, you'll benefit from added flow and compression. Your Hp target is achievable.
May I recommend the TV2 on a 112 LSA

I put down 415 cam only with that cam through a M6 on my 02 Z. I am currently installing this cam on my 02 T/A which is a stalled auto. So i will see what that does. But a rear gear is a must with the M6, if not you will be a dog till 3500 RPM's.

My car with M6 put down 415 rwhp with tsp stage 1 ls6 heads & torquer 2 (112 LSA) thru a 9" w/4.11's and on a very safe tune.

thats exactly what i was going with, i love the sound of a good lope!

btw, bout how much does it cost to have the heads milled, ported, and polished? just in case i run into a little bit more money

On average about 600>700 $

We have a few sets of cnc ported 241 heads available for pretty reasonable. I think we have 3 sets we're going to be offering for $900 with beehives installed!!!
