Hey Guys That is for a PAIR of cylinder heads! Yes a complete pair. I know if you look close at the pricing it says each but that is wrong, heck look at the AFR heads, they arent charging $4200 a pair for those, plus I saw this discussion in another thread. http://texas-speed.com/shop/item.asp...d=649&catid=40 $899 per pair! Call em up!

This is correct. I would recommend upgrading the valvesprings that they come with to either the 918's or the PRC kit depending on which size camshaft you decide to go wtih.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/dynamometer-results-comparisons/442144-prc-street-849-heads-dyno-results.html Look at this link to a test of those exact heads from the dyno section. These #'s are basically in the range I could expect to gain with these heads on my car as I have VERY similar starting #'s compared to Joseph's Z28.

wazzup Chris!!
I got ls6 PP heads and flow sheet reads 302.x for intake & 218.x for exhaust w 2.02 int valve & 1.57 exh valve . I would go with cnc heads. with stock your only going to open up intake/exhaust ports and maybe some in between. cnc are best way to go imo. hand port is old school. save your $$$$ for cnc heads and you will feel better.
