This will be an interesting outcome ... I am wanting to see the rwt change with the FAST 102. Most of the installs I have read about had not had significant torque increases. I would like to go to a larger head, but my TFS CNC 215's flow 266.1/321.8 cfh's at 0.600 ... that's pretty good for a 215 and thought about a FAST 102. I hate to lose my torque!
Are you running a stock cube 6.0?

Orderd stock 12589227(ls2) head gaskets today and hopefully brian will have my heads in a few days so he can port match them. Thought about painting the intake flat black and the lettering gloss.. I think it would look very nice.

My fast 102 almost matched perfect to my afr 225 heads on my 6.0, I made 464 through an unlocked stalled auto, I would think you will be 485ish since the afr/tf are comparable and our cams are about the same size.
In the above pic are the heads being matched to the intake off the motor? I'd prefer to match them with the heads bolted to the motor that way you have a more accurate view and/or feel of where the intake may need to be matched.
Also I was wondering if you plan to flycut your piston? the TF should have larger valves and that will require more valve relief needed...flycutting is easy and is well worth the peace of mind.
Keep up the good work and keep the pics coming
