tsp prc stg 1 ls6 heads with comp valve job. youre going want heads with stock sized valves so you dont have to flycut, and they are a good deal. i believe about $1200 with the comp valve job.

I'm probably going to go with some PRC stage 1's with the comp valve job. We'll see if I have ptv issues! BTW, I have a T-Rex v.1 in the motor right now.

Thanks for all the kind words on our PRC heads guys! We've worked really hard perfecting the ports with extensive dyno & flow testing!

If you get some extra time just look in the dyno section. I think you'll find the horsepower results you're looking for!!

I agree ETP 225 with high compression would be a top end monster.
