Default TSP / Patriot 5.3 Stage II Race-Series Heads (pics)

Just got these bad boys in the other day. Hand finished, 2.055 intake and 1.60 exhaust valves, w/ Patriot dual springs.

Should, hopefully, have the car up and running this week.

Brian glad you have your heads! They are actually Texas Speed Race heads, they are cnc ported by Patriot performance for us. They feature 2.055 intake valves, 1.60 exhaust valves & are the same heads that went 437rwhp with our new 225 cam

Yes, they are the TSP Race Heads. Sorry for the miss-information, Brian. Wasn't trying to take any credit away from you guys.

that doesnt include the new larger valves though right? Probably still wouldve been worth it for me to spend $1400 initially on some hand finished race ported heads what are the flow specs on those over the std. cnd patriot heads? FWIW they look damn good

This is just the hand finishing charge to remove the CNC marks.The intake,exhaust and the chambers are hand polished.This can be added to stage 2 or stage 3 heads.

What is the difference in intake/exhaust port flow and volume for the race heads vs. the 5.3 stage 2 heads?

I too an interested in the flow #s on the Race Series 5.3s.
Do you have to flycut for the larger valves on say a G5X2 cam??
Will you get more for your buck going with the Race Ported 5.3s or the LS6 Style (59cc) Stage II heads without the port job?
