Anyone checked out Advanced Induction's new Dart/RHS CNC'd head program?

Pro-Porter heads...basically the aftermarket brand head of your choice but no CNC work,no valve seats and no hardware...pretty common actually
I know of someone that makes a private label port design based off of an as-cast unported Warhawk Head...

To bring this back, I've been e-mailing back and forth with AI about their 232cc ported 243 heads and I had asked if they offer an option of selling the actual castings, as I don't have a set. Phil said that they are all out and that GM really raised the price of the 243 castings, so that's no longer an option. Phil then e-mailed me a link to the AI Dart/RHS heads they offer. I asked him what the HP/TQ difference would be between the Dart/RHS heads and the AI 232cc 243 heads and he said the Dart/RHS heads would yeild about 15 more HP over the 232cc heads on the same setup because of better chamber design. I think that sealed it for me. Since I don't have the 243 castings, the AI Dart/RHS heads makes great sense.

Nate,
With your current cam and those heads I would think you'd be well on your way to your goals. With the low-end grunt of the TorqueMAX cam and the impressive average power it makes, these heads would be ideal IMO.
That said, all the programs that have been discussed in this thread that are done by AI will yield similar results. We all know that AI does great work on LS and LT style cylinder heads. I would have no problem letting AI do this RHS program for me knowing the results we consistently see from their shop.

Your opinion means a lot to me, especially since you are the one who designed my cam. If I want to acheive 11.5.1 compression, what do I need to have the heads milled to? Remember, my cam measured out at 227/235 110lsa and the ICL was at 105. I do not want to have to flycut.

Just wanted to update everyone that my Advanced Induction Dart/RHS 223cc heads, milled to 60.5cc arrived yesterday. They look fantastic and I can't wait to get them bolted on. I will be starting a new Thread tomorrow after I snap some pics tonight. Stay tuned.
