I知 thinking about getting tsp cylinder heads but I知 debating whether to get the 220 or the 225. Anyone running either or. I知 bottom end is stock basically the whole engine is stock but I知 ordering the cam so I would like to know which heads to go with.

it痴 a 2002 Camaro ss, m6, stock ls1. Planning on getting a 224 /228 cam and upgrade valve train. Already got the full exhaust just waiting on it. Want some power for your occasional drag strip.

Order the camshaft and heads together and go with TSP’s recommendation. Give them honest answers to their questions and you’ll be very happy with the outcome. They will know best what camshaft works with their heads.

I don't have any experience with the 220s, but I put the 225s on my SBE LS1 this summer and the car rips now.

+1 for calling tsp and ordering together they will ask you all the question to give you a setup that is going to be matched best for most power output but like stated above make sure you answer the question truthfully because if you say you want the most power possible they are going to give you a radical setup when really you may want some thing that has more DD potential, a question i'd like to ask though is what are you future plans with the car as far as bottom end do you ever intend to go the stroker route?
Now I hate to do this sense to seem to have you mind made up and this will throw anther option that you will have to decide on BUT have you taken a look at trickflow? that is who I am going to go threw they have a 220 as cast head that works great and going with it future proofs your car because when you're ready or if you end up wanting to go with an LS2 with more cubes down the road you can send that head out and actually have it opened up to a 4" bore and 235cc

I agree you'll enjoy that setup. What size are the headers primaries and what intake/tb are you going to run? I have those PRC 225's with the TSP v4 camshaft and very happy with the power gains. Just swapped out my 1 3/4" headers for 1 7/8" along with the TBSS intake and a Nick Williams 92mm. Those two upgrades in exhaust and induction flow really helped 225's seeing their potential. Wanted to do the fast 102 but wasn't in the budget... yet.

You already decide where you're going to take it to get dynoed? if not now would be a good time to start calling some places and looking around so you're ready to roll when the swap is done
