TEA heads are probably one of the best set of heads on the market. They have one of the best(if not THE best) CNC machines, and the prices are excellent.

I like mine. 3520 race weight, not ideal conditions, time in sig. The car has more in it with suspension tuning and better 60'. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I have TEA heads and they are very nice. Brian and the folks down there do first-class work IMO!

For Stage II heads they are a steal! 295-300cfm is about what everyone has on Stage II's and @ $1800 it's a steal. One thing is you know that those heads are going to be what he says they are, gotta love a CNC for that.

While you are at it click on the Bauer link, that's my stuff.

TEA Heads rock.

TEA uses top-quality parts, and they have their own custom-developed CNC program for the LS1/6 head that gives them great flow for the $$.

I have a set of the 5.3L LS1 truck heads (Stage II) on my 99 C5, and the car flat-out hauls. I love 'em, and for the price, they are a heck of a value.
