Katech was using 941 springs and had a few break in their heads and cam packages. The installs were NOT done by Katech so that might have played a factor. I've not seen any impressive numbers so far for street stuff by Katech. I think you could find as good or better H & C >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I suggest checking with Total Engine Airflow you can get their number at

www.totalengineairflow.com

ask for Brian

Outstanding heads for the cost.

Likewiese LPE also >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
has some hot new LS6 heads worth taking a look at, see the thread in this forum for details.

Of course other sponsors also have nice stuff for sale too. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

My buddy does, and he ran a 11.5 at 138. He also sprayed, and was spinning just about the whole way. The track conditions were shitty, but it is an amazing package. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

This was on a M6 2000 Formula Firehawk, with stock block and stock lower end internals. It was on a Currie 9" and DRs. He has a RAM clutch. I can only imagine what he would have run on a decent track.

Is that Bruce's car, from Germany?? If it is it does run really, really good. The car is just a heads and cam car.

Yep, that's Bruce's car. Katech stage II LS6 heads and cam. He will be running 10's next year, without a doubt. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> He's just gotta get more traction.
