Default F14 with LS6 heads

I think a couple people have ran the F14/F14HL on an LS6 or LS6 headed car. I did a search...sigforty did like 420 rwhp I believe with his Z06...anyone else out there?

are you asking what would be a better head to go with the f14 or do you just want to see what kind of numbers the f14 will put down with ls6 heads

Also interested, trying to decide the best cam to run with my Z LS6 heads....
The F14 looks good, but so does the El Torro....

Sorry I didn't make that very clear.

I have an F14 HL in my car currently, with the stock 806 heads. It made 395 rwhp. I'm adding LS6 heads to the combo and was basically wondering if anyone else out there had an F14HL/243 head combo, what kind of power they made, what was their complete setup, track times, any additional info or comments...

You'll probably make close to the same power Sigforty stated above....What are your bolt-ons, I'm assuming Full if you made 395 with that cam and 806 heads.
How do you like the F14HL, how's it drive?
When are you putting the heads on, would like to see what the new numbers are before I go buy my cam...not sure which one?

A guy I know down here went from 393hp with f14 cam and stock ls1 heads to 421hp with the ls6 heads. His car is a 2002 ss a4 with kooks no cats and borla cat back and ss3600 stall.

Basically budget bolt ons. Pacesetters, LS6 intake/ported TB, UD pulley, lid...

I love the cam. It drives great even with 3.42s, lopes pretty good on the 112 LSA, made decent power...trapped 115 full weight in mediocre air (~2200 DA). I'd recommend it, the regular F14 or the F13s to anyone looking for a good all around cam. This cam is by no means "wild" or a burden to DD whatsoever.

I'm also looking forward to what it makes, my heads are 243s with a VERY light port job, the only thing I'm still debating on is how much to mill them. I have to get them cleaned up regardless and I have to decide whether to have them milled a little extra (opinions on this more than welcome).
