hey yall just looking into heads and cams for my car. whats the best setup yall know with a decent price... prob gonna keep the stock bottom end, my plans are just a top end build..h/c/i ?? thanks

 

This has been beaten to death more times than anything else on this site. Do a search, check the dyno results forum, and call sponsors with yoru current mods and goals for the car. They will set you up.

 

There is no best. There are well built combos that work together and perform. What is a decent price. Budget and goals?

 

+1 There is no such thing as best H/C.. its all in combo and how you set up your car. Since you did say budget, it is tough to beat the performance from TSP H/C packages.

 

Checkout the PRC 227 castings. I'm finishing up a version with 59cc chambers that will clear MS camshafts & the Tsunami camshafts.

 

go to TSP website,great prices and service.

 

stock 243s with a decent cam...if you have 3k plus then a good aftermarket head from a sponsor will squeeze a few more ponies out...really depends on how much you want to pay to play?

 

+1...this is a very broad question with many possible answers depending on what it is exactly you are looking to do and achieve.

 

What kind of numbers can be expected w/ those heads u mentioned along w/ the mods in my sig? Good low end torque 2?

 

I would get the new AFR 210cc heads and a cam around a 228/232 .590/.590 113 size if you have the money, drivability should still be close to stock and still have great torque/midrange. Mill the heads to try to get a 11.0-11.2 compression if PTV won't be an issue. Should make around 450-460rwhp

If you want to save a grand, look into TSPs LS6 or 5.3 heads.

 

i have a recently used afr 205 59.5cc and g5x3 on a 112 lsa i just purchased. pistons will need to be fly cut. pm if interested. im still thinking of going procharged.

 

The best head and cam package for a 346 is this... 205 or 215cc AFR/Trickflow plus whatever cam you want. Anything else is a budget build that can still kick *** but you need to research. You can throw whatever cam you want at a AFR/Trickflow headed car and it is still going to perform.

 

Yeah, i was also lookin at the TF heads for me, seems to AFR and TF are the best of the best for our cars. Im looin at the TF as cast 220s from vengance and having them milled to a nice 59cc, if ofcourse it will clear my f13. U cant beat the price from vengance, just under $1700!

 

I just ordered some STG 2.5 5.3L heads with an MS3 from TSP, good for low end power and overall great street machine, plus the price was great, I was going to go with LS6 stg 2.5 which would give me good top end power, but they told me that for what I wanted the 5.3's would be better. but just give TSP a call and they can guide you in the right direction.

 

get my setup, its the best
