Default MS3 with Terminator Heads.

Will a MS3 on a 112 or 113 work with the terminator heads without flycutting?
What kind of power do you guys think it would make with a fast 90?
How do you feel about this combo in a corvette?

That is all!

Sounds good for a Corvette for sure. I don't know the cc of the Terminators though. All depends on what the deck height is. If it is too close for comfort but still clears you can always try to go with a thicker gasket. You should always check anyway. Especially if you are going to be taking the heads off...you are already right there and checking would only take about 20 minutes max. No big deal. If it doesnt work, flycutting seems to be getting popular lately, and is really not a bad avenue to take either.

I seem to remember reading that they should fit but required a lot of work to the heads to do so. I think TERM8R is running them and making 480+rwhp or something like that.

Personally I'd look at flycutting. I don't think it's anywhere near as big a deal as it first appears.

Flycutting is no big deal, especially if you are taking the heads off.

We can set the Terminator heads up to fit the MS3 without flycutting. It should be a great combo, especially with a FAST intake setup.

It is nice to see people actually modifying Corvettes. That would be a sick, sick combo!
