I got a great deal on some 799 heads (same as LS2 243s) and I'm curious about getting them ported.

How much is the average cost to have heads ported?

Who do you recommend sending them to?

 

call TEA, they are the best.

 

^^YES^^Am supplying the heads (243's) springs (921's) and Ti retainers, valves (stock LS6 hollow/sodium filled new) and they are doing their Stage II for only $800.

 

Do you know if that includes any combution chamber work (lowering CC) and a valve job?

 

You could get ahold of Bo White and ask politely if he will do them for ya. last time I asked him he said he still did some porting on the side.

 

cnc'ed are 100% done bowl, chambers, intake and exhaust..

 

Port an polish an a 5 angle valve job.

 

i have a set of 243's out now just getting a quality valve job with some hand blending. the bill is right around $500 with untouched runners.

 

Local guy does head work and has made 310cfm on 241's with stock valves and 3 way vj, costs about 800 bucks

You could also check out west coast cylinder heads they have a pretty good rep. but i think they cost a little more.

 

What ever their stage II in tells is what they will do.

 

Hmm. TEA lists the stage 2 with bigger 2.040"intake valves and 1.575" exhaust valves. I wonder how they are going to fix the program to work with stock sized valves? Your getting a hell of a deal sonce it's listed at $1320 with customer cores. Maybe because you are providing all the valvetrain, let us know how it turns out. I also have a set of LS6 heads I want to send out to port but I was looking at Advanced Induction so I'm very intersested in your results.

What Brian said that the valve size will not affect their program. I am providing the whole valve train. They can accomplish the same numbers with the stock size valves. What the valve size will give me is more clearance.

I will post numbers as soon as I can and keep everyone posted.
