looks like i was alittle over on duration on my intake lobe.. i can barely catch it with my finger nail so ill just run it, no sharp edges to cause bad heat spots. Anyway.. the heads are off and i await the arrival of my trickflows.
just a kiss... did you measure the PTV clearance on your old setup?

so then since i post in the ltx/lsx forum on tgo and i post on ls1tech then i guess TPI Terror, Outlaw drifter/STREETDEMON, BlueZee28, Mw66nova, RPD Vette84/INTIMIDATOR Z, Xpndbl3 and Grifter all should be banned from all forums since we ALL post most of our stuff on both... shame on us.

oh you can bet i will, they cost'd me an arm and my first born. i ordered the heads from a member on here and he will be purchasing them from trickflow and milling them to my spec's and port matching my intake, so it will be a week or two before i actually get my hands on them.
Back to topic those heads should be a nice improvement.
the guys on Tgo are hardcore on tpi because thats how they make there money if people switch to ls then the lose buisness... they dont want to learn the new stuff

But back to the heads, I hope to make over 500hp or atleast be close. but going from 463 to 500 seems alot. The 463 was without an u/d pulley so just say going from 471 to 500 is 29rwhp...

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 cfm's at 0.600 ... that's pretty good for a 215 and thought about a FAST 102. I hate to lose my torque!
