Default Heads...

I haven't been able to pay attention to the market much lately with school picking up and all, but I finally graduated and have moved on to my job and I'm ready to start looking around to update my set-up

What looks to be the kickin' thing with heads these days? The newest, coolest stuff?

Nothing is 'new and improved'?

I heard about a 4v head for LS1's... Anybody have any info on those?

most people here will say trick flows are top dog. others say TEA, Id go ETP heads though if I were looking for new top of the line heads. but the size of the intake port will depend on the rest of your setup.
keep searching. you can also look in teh dyno forum for proven combo's.

Those would work okay on a bigger bore motor. You can't run them on a LS1 though.

On my next motor I'm thinking about running an iron block... Not sure if I want to bore/stroke it yet, I still haven't made up my mind which method of FI I want to go with

Can I run the L92's with that?

sweet, that's pretty much what I'm looking for. The combo I'm trying to put together isn't going to be crazy, but I want a good flowing head for my FI set-up I want to run
