Best heads for Ms3
What's your budget? Are you looking for aftermarket castings or ported stock castings? TFS heads are top notch aftermarket heads and for ported stockers, Advanced Induction, TEA, Flowtech Induction, Livernois and WCCH are great places to have a set of 243/799 heads ported.
For 2k you can get the TFS as cast heads from Brian Tooley, have him put in the PM guides and get him do his famous hand port work on them. Those heads will be just as good or better than TFS 215cc heads plus, you'll be able to mill them more to raise compression and still have adequate piston to valve clearance.

That's awesome. I was torn between the TFS As Cast 220cc heads (Tooley worked) and the heads I ended up going with, which are the Advanced Induction Dart/RHS 223cc fully CNC's heads. I'm really happy with what I have, but I know I'd be just as happy if I'd have gone the TFS route.

Yes he is. I ended up electing not to go with his worked over TFS heads, but I did buy his platinum .660 lift spring kit to put on my Advanced Induction Dart/RHS heads.
You can not beat the porting we offer bang for the dollar period. We use top notch parts in our builds and with you sending us castings, we will come in way under your budget.

i have a MS3 cam and just ordered my texas speed prc as cast 225s last week and had them milled to the ms3 specs and 60cc chambers going to be 11/1 comnpression and still be able to use stock rockers for $1700! its going to be really hard to beat that bang for buck i really researched this alot before i made my purchase
TFS205 with 58cc chamber and stock ptv clearance. You need compression with an MS3 and good port velocity. With Cometic .040s you'd be over 11.8:1 and that's ideal for that cam. Best of all they are under 2k and come with PM guides so you can use your stock rockers.

check the Texas Speed website for head prices .with that cam you need the valves sunk into the seats ,or a lesser valve angle .you should measure for proper push rod length .get some comp cam rocker arm bearings also .
I've been looking and about to make a move just dont know between the As cast 225cc or the stage 2.5 ls6's just not sure whats better I'll most likely call texas-speed this week. Also probably go with a FAST 92/92 combo
